The error in the logs is:

Setting up resolvconf (1.63ubuntu11) ...
resolvconf.postinst: Error: Cannot replace the current /etc/resolv.conf with a symbolic link because it is immutable. To correct this problem, gain root privileges in a terminal and run 'chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf' and then 'dpkg --configure resolvconf'. Aborting.
dpkg: error processing resolvconf (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

You need to run the indicated commands to fix /etc/resolv.conf to not be immutable:
sudo chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf
sudo dpkg --configure -a

** Changed in: resolvconf (Ubuntu)
