This might be my a-ha moment from comment # 64 "after upgrading to 16.10, yes it is even worse, the first VPN connection works as it should, but after disconnect/connect, DNS from VPN isn't propagated"
I came to this bug because suddenly my VPN connection wasn't working when I *swear* it was yesterday. I didn't have (/don't remember having!) any problems under 16.04, obviously the 16.10 update was recent. I'm about to reboot - if it comes right after that, then I'll be able to confirm this diagnosis. That said, interesting discussion on http://askubuntu.com/questions/838948/16-10-fail-to-resolve-dns - is dnsmasq out of the equation now? That would suggest problems with upgrading from 16.04 to 16.10 not reconfiguring (and maybe the commenting-out of dns=dnsmasq is the missing sort of step).
Also agree with Mathieu in comment # 50 that this bug report is way past its use-by date. It was started for 13.04 and now we're discussing the 16.04 to 16.10 upgrade? Similar symptoms, but highly unlikely that the same remedy would work across all these versions.
