Public bug reported:

By default, when installing ubuntu-desktop (and when installing some
other packages as well), apt will also install dnsmasq as a dependency.
When dnsmask is installed, and static IP addresses are used, resolv.conf
creates a nearly empty /etc/resolv.conf file.  The file only contains
entries for localhost and the search domain.  If static IP addresses are
defined in /etc/network/interfaces, then shouldn't those DNS servers
should be included in /etc/resolv.conf regardless of the presence of
dnsmask?
