Are there any crash files in /var/crash related to this? If so, can you
run apport-bug /var/crash/<file> to create a bug using that instead?

Title:
  systemd-timesyncd (sd-resolve) causes segfault on start

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  
  I was looking at dmesg output trying to figure out a separate problem and I keep seeing segfault messages from sd-resolve.  Some Googling turned up that systemd-timesyncd is the service that starts sd-resolve.  Restarting systemd-timesyncd showed this to be the case, as syslog showed the segfault messages as well.  systemd-timesyncd does not run.

  I didn't save the output from dmesg.  Sorry.

  This is the output from journalctl -u systemd-timesyncd:
