Sebastian Unger: Update your mirror to resolvconf 1.63ubuntu7 and try
again. And report your results!  Versions 1.63ubuntu5 and 1.63ubuntu6
installed the /etc/resolv.conf symlink differently from other versions
of the package.  That could explain why, when you install Oneiric +
resolvconf 1.63ubuntu6 + its dependencies, your /etc/resolv.conf is not
symlinked to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf.

A second problem is that /run/resolvconf does not get created on your
system.  This surprising phenomenon has already been reported at
#927300.

A third problem is that dpkg-reconfigure doesn't fix the second problem.
Dpkg-reconfigure does not re-run the preinst but it does re-run the
postinst which runs an Upstart job which should create /run/resolvconf.
So if you run dpkg-reconfigure *twice* it should succeed the second
time.  If it does not do so in your case then that is either a bug in
1.63ubuntu6 or bug #929552 which I mentioned above.
