Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to 17.10, hostname resolution (via, e.g., Firefox or the
"host" command-line tool) does not work reliably anymore.  Once hostname
resolution fails (Firefox 57: "Hmm.  We're having trouble finding that
site."), manually resolving the host via "systemd-resolve" succeeds and
temporarily allows Firefox to also resolve that host.  After a few
minutes, resolution of the same host fails again.

Example with command-line "host" utility:

$ host www.heise.de
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
# 127.0.0.53 is the systemd-resolved stub resolver.
# run "systemd-resolve --status" to see details about the actual nameservers.
