It would be helpful if the administrator's own answer to resolvconf
/linkify-resolvconf were recorded somewhere before the value of the
latter gets reset to false in the postinst.

Better yet, perhaps: Change the postinst so that it doesn't fiddle with
the answer to linkify-resolvconf; instead create a new question,
resolvconf/linkify-done, which gets sets from false to true on
linkification and whose value being true prevents linkification being
repeated on subsequent postinst runs.

Even better would be to return to having an idempotent postinst; but
then another solution would have to be found for the problem that the
debconf-fiddling solved.

Regarding #1000244 itself, we still have the unsolved mystery of how pdf
could clean-install 12.04 and end up with no resolv.conf symlink (see
comment #10).
