You have been subscribed to a public bug:

As of ubuntu7 (and maybe ubuntu6), we get failing installs related to
the new resolvconf changes which do the /etc/resolv.conf link in the
postinst.

During the "select and install software" step, we see /etc/resolv.conf
go away (simply vanish) at some point in the prep step, and then we get
the question about automatic upgrades, and then it goes away again
during the install packages step. Then when the resulting error is
printed (that it can't find our package source or proxy, because the
names don't resolve) it gets put back.

It's really clear what's happening when I have another VT which just
does ls -l /etc/resolv.conf in a loop.

Still investigating.
