[Bug 1738375] [NEW] Resolving DNS entry, answer too big to handle

[masterpe]

Public bug reported:

On an Ubuntu 17.04, I can't resolve the DNS name www.ziggogo.tv.

If I use the command ping www.ziggogo.tv, I get the error:
ping: www.ziggogo.tv: Temporary failure in name resolution

If I use the command ping -6 www.ziggogo.tv or ping -4 www.ziggogo.tv
both works fine.

After doing some testen with test-size.masterpe.nl, when the hostname
has 12 A records and 13 AAAA records. I can ping the hostname. If I add
one extra record so the total lines become 26. The resolving failles.

After discussing on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-
users/2017-December/292951.html it is probably a bug.

After doing some analyst on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-
users/2017-December/292964.html. Everything looks OK.

Kind regards
