[Bug 959037] Re: Don't start local resolver if a DNS server is installed

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

@jdthood: the "Standalone dnsmasq is not compatible out of the box with
NM+dnsmasq" title hints that the problem is caused by the dnsmasq
package, i.e. that it should be crippled and not listen on "lo" by
default in order to coexist with the local resolver implementation.

I don't think this is the case, I don't think the dnsmasq package does
anything wrong; I just cross-linked the bug report in case other people
hit the problem and try to find it in the dnsmasq bug page.

The problem should be fixed from the network-manager side.

Otherwise, similar bug reports should be filed against all other DNS
server packages, not just dnsmasq. But I really think that people do
want their DNS servers to listen on "lo" by default. They wouldn't want
to break that just to help the local resolver implementation.
