After going back to WSL1 the problem disappears again. Same on Debian and analogous in CentOS .. so WSL2 must have a bug.
The Windows10 build Version is 19041 and was installed today.
Any work around for WSL2? Regards
The generated file /etc/resolv.conf is:
nameserver 172.24.0.1
..had to change it to
nameserver 8.8.8.8
which resolves the problem
