I don't want to reopen this bug, but I had the same problem because of installed resolvconf.
But the problem is: I didn't install this manually. So probably some package falsely required resolvconf. But I could purge it without problems, so the triggering package obviously has dropped this requirement in the meanwhile.
@Scott: Perhaps you should think of that if more bugreports are coming for that.
