I reformatted over 14.04 and installed 16.04 as a fresh start. I use a
slightly customized server install ISO image that includes my own
preseed file for automation. My approach is to start with a bare-bones
server install on all machines and then install extra packages based on
the machine's function (ubuntu-desktop on workstations, for instance).
According to my installation logs, dnsmasq was installed during an
"apt-get install ubuntu-desktop unity-tweak-tool" on a workstation
(which of those two packages actually resulted in a dependency on
dnsmasq I don't know), and on a server it was installed during an
"apt-get install polipo".

Title:
resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when
static IP addresses are used
Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
By default, when installing ubuntu-desktop (and when installing some
other packages as well), apt will also install dnsmasq as a
dependency. When dnsmasq 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 dnsmasq?
