Also confirming this "bug". I resolved my issues by running `dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf` and choosing YES to the option to create a symlink.

FWIW, I needed to do this for VirtualBox to work with NAT networking properly, since it relies on reading the DNS entries from /etc/resolv.conf so it can pass them onto the guest OS. I'm unsure at this point if it's a "bug" in VirtualBox to rely on that file, or a bug in Mint to not create that file on install, or a bug in resolvconf to continue working without that file.
