That was actually somewhat easy to pinpoint...

14:57 <@djpig> This is a relatively simple bug
14:57 <@djpig> ${!dns_server_1_address_*} works
14:57 <@djpig> but "server_var=dns_server_1_address_*; ${!server_var}" does not

bugfix should pop up on https://gerrit.openvpn.net "soonish"

Question to you, Ralf: what is needed to make Ubuntu 25.04 use "resolvconf"?

We do have a 25.04 buildbot, and that one is testing DNS, but it's using
"systemctl-resolved", which is one of the 2 other methods implemented in
the Linux script...  (aand of course I tested "edit resolv.conf file" and
"resolvectl", and none of my Linuxes have "resolvconf".  The FreeBSD script
uses "resolvconf", but that's a different script)
