Bug Description
I have just moved to Mint 13. I noticed on installing that my domain wasn't automatically being added to the end of paths - i.e I had to use tethys.ese.ic.ac.uk where I should just be able to use tethys.
The reason for this was that /var/run/
[ -L /etc/resolv.conf ] || { report_err "/etc/resolv.conf isn't a symlink, not doing anything."; exit 0; }
and also noticed that other Ubuntu Precise workstations in the department have a symlink to resolv.conf in /etc/ where I did not. Adding this symlink and restarting resolvconf resolved the problem

I can confirm this on 3 seperate installs. I was actually about to report this myself.
I however, did a "dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf " and that resolved my issues.
