[Bug 1172467] Re: Dnsmasq caches negative results if it starts before the network is up

[Stéphane Graber]

NetworkManager starts dnsmasq with caching completely disabled so that
seems unlikely to be a problem with the NM spawned dnsmasq.

However the fact that adding the setting to /etc/dnsmasq.d/network-
manager fixed it for you, shows that you're not using NetworkManager's
dnsmasq but a system dnsmasq instead.

Can you confirm that you have the "dnsmasq" package installed and not
only "dnsmasq-base"?

If so, then that bug is invalid as when you install "dnsmasq" on your
system, that'll bypass NetworkManager's own instance and so will run
with the default dnsmasq settings (including caching).
