The contents of /etc/resolv.conf are always of interest.
There's really not much there:
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 127.0.0.1
That and /etc/nsswitch.conf a/etc/hosts
# cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

You should also check if there are any new firewall issues, and that you haven't run out of space somewhere.
Finally, you may have forwarder(s) in your bind. It's best to check if that is working
No changes were made to the firewall and there are no firewall issues I'm aware of. The forwarder's section in the "/etc/bind/named.conf.options" is commented out so there are no forwarders:
// forwarders {
// 0.0.0.0;
// };
# aptitude show bind9
