Public bug reported:
After upgrading my 16.04 installation today I noticed my VPN sessions
suddenly had no name resolution anymore.
Digging through /var/log/apt/history.log I noticed these were the

Expected
After updating that connecting to my existing and working Cisco VPN would work
What happened
Name resolution failed. Could not ping hosts over VPN anymore.
Most likely cause
It seems that /etc/resolv.conf is not getting the search argument added to the
file anymore. With .3 installed I only had a nameserver 127.0.0.1 line. Now
with .1 installed I see that I have both that nameserver 127.0.0.1 line as well
as search <VPN DNS domain>
