Package: libc6
Version: 2.22-3
Severity: important

Hi,

I have a couple of vmware instances that use NAT networking.
After the libc6 upgrade from 2.21 to 2.22 on the host system, the VMs
are no longer able to resolve any names.

I found https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=201946

A workaround for now is to configure the guests to not use the DNS
server provided by vmware but a public one, like 8.8.8.8.

This is a known VMware issue that is fixed in version 12.1.1:

Please upgrade your VMware software. I am closing the bug.
