@justin-demaris: Yes, sort of.  What happened is that the first update
caused a regression, and the second update reverted that.  Any services
that were restarted with the broken update would then have been "re-
broken" with the update that backed out that change until they were
again re-started.  The good news is that people with less aggressive
update schedules probably skipped the bug entirely (as upgrading from an
older libc to the current one won't break), but that's scant comfort for
those who came along for the ride.

Bug description:
  After installing the libc6_2.19-0ubuntu6.10_amd64_udeb package during
  the automated install of ubuntu 14.04.5, the system was suddenly
  unable to resolve hostnames via dns. Installing -0ubuntu6.9 resolved
  the issue. Reinstalling -ubuntu6.10 broke the system again.

  I note that -ubuntu6.10 was recently added to the archive.

  I am currently unable to install Ubuntu 14.04.5.
