Public bug reported:

We've recently seen odd looking DNS failures on autopkgtest:
https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-artful/artful/amd64/d/docker.io/20170921_065231_181b8@/log.gz

This shows a fe80:: link-local IPv6 address as one of the DNS servers on
the interface. That's because dnsmasq includes both the link-local and
global addresses of its DNS server in the router advertisement.

systemd-networkd appears to pick that up and send it to resolved, which
includes it in its config but apparently doesn't know how to actually
query it, leading to the failure above.


This is racy because once DHCPv4 completes, the resolved config will then work 
properly again.


I've confirmed that dnsmasq properly answers on all addresses:

I've uploaded a workaround for this issue as part of the docker.io package.
