[Bug 880020] Re: oneiric container install problem: inetutils-ping

[Serge Hallyn]

Ok, there are two bugs here.

inetutils-ping causes the warning lines:

W: Failure while installing base packages. This will be re-attempted up
to five times.

resolvconf causes resolv.conf to be empty until you do 'ifdown eth0;
ifup eth0'.

I will pull resolvconf from the template.  I don't think it's worth
pulling inetutils-ping from the package list to quiet that warning.
(Please feel free to pursuade me if you disagree)
