Unfortunately this is the sort of problem that is very difficult to debug
after the fact, particularly as the kinds of changes users make to try to
resolve the problem for themselves tend to erase necessary clues.

If someone has /etc/resolv.conf as a symlink to
/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf, it would be helpful to know the timestamp
of that symlink, which we could then correlate with package upgrade logs.
