** Description changed:

  DNS was broken in Xenial minimal images under some circumstances due to
  a 0-byte /etc/resolv.conf file.
  
  [Test Case]
  Build Xenial Minimal Image
  Check /etc/resolv.conf and confirm it is a symlink and not a 0-byte file.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Regression would manifest in inability to do name resolution completely.
+ 
+ Although a 0-byte /etc/resolv.conf does currently prevent name
+ resolution, it can be repaired by running `# dhclient`.
+ 
+ An example of a regression would potentially be that the above
+ workaround is no longer effective.
