Package: dnsmasq Severity: normal It would be good if dnsmasq wasn't stopped at the beginning of an upgrade and started after the upgrade -- it'd be much better to postpone to stop,start (or restart) until the upgrade has completed.
The problem with the existing behaviour is that I'm left without a DNS server while upgrading, and in theory any package that does a wget during installation (for example flashplugin-nonfree, IIRC) could fail. Restarting after upgrade would lead to a minimum of downtime during upgrade. For reference, a similar change was made to the bpalogin package as described in bug #316466.
