Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu 16.10
Release: 16.10
I checked a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.10 on a v machine and indeed the problem can be replicated.
I sudo apt install bind9
I did no touching or editing of any bind9 files. I left /etc/network/
sudo apt install bind9 should install a working caching server and setting Gnome Network Manager to 127.0.0.1 should produce a working DNS system.
This worked perfectly on Ubuntu 15.10. I installed bind9 after having not used it until 16.10 and found that the plug and play, it just works bind9 no longer worked.
The following log entries are the only ones available.

Just tested Ubuntu 15.10 and Bind9 works out of the box. Could not test 16.04.2 because of issues with Virtualbox.
