[Bug 1674532] Re: glibc update caused NSS ABI break

[Adam Conrad]

@paul-dubs: "dig @8.8.8.8", by definition, completely bypasses the libc
resolver.  It makes a direct connection to 8.8.8.8 and queries it.  If
that's slow or broken for you, you have a link layer networking issue,
or Google's geo-located 8.8.8.8 near you is broken, or some other
similar thing.  It literally can't relate to the this update.

Bug description:
  After installing the libc6_2.19-0ubuntu6.10_amd64_udeb package during
  the automated install of ubuntu 14.04.5, the system was suddenly
  unable to resolve hostnames via dns. Installing -0ubuntu6.9 resolved
  the issue. Reinstalling -ubuntu6.10 broke the system again.

  I note that -ubuntu6.10 was recently added to the archive.

  I am currently unable to install Ubuntu 14.04.5.
