Bug description:
  apt-get remove resolvconf incorrectly leaves a symlink from
  /etc/resolv.conf to ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf.  apt-get purge
  resolvconf leaves that symlink with no target, so DNS is broken.

  The problem is in postrm: it's examining /etc/resolv.conf to see if
  it's a link to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf, but it's a relative link
  to ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf, so the comparison fails, resulting
  in the failures above.
