"Leaving a broken system behind on remove/purge is broken" and thats what 
happens and thats why I've now set the severity to serious:

First, I've created a clean sid chroot. Then I chrooted into it and ran the 
following commands:

    1  cat /etc/resolv.conf 
    2  cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.before-dnscache-run
    3  apt-get install dnscache-run
    4  cat /etc/resolv.conf
    5  cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.dnscache-run-installed
    6  apt-get remove dnscache-run
    7  cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.dnscache-run-removed
    8  dpkg --purge dnscache-run
    9  cp /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.dnscache-run-purged
   10  cd /etc/
   11  ls -lart resolv.conf*
   12  cat /etc/resolv.conf.before-dnscache-run 
   13  cat resolv.conf
   14  ls -lart resolv.conf*
   15  ping www.debian.org
   16  history

ping: unknown host www.debian.org

while it used to work before the package was installed.


cheers,
