Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.45-1
Severity: normal

I seem to have to set RESOLV_CONF in /etc/default/dnsmasq, as otherwise
the -r setting in /etc/init.d/dnsmasq overrides the resolv-file setting
in /etc/dnsmasq.conf, contrary to the comments in /etc/init.d/dnsmasq.

I don't know if it is because the upstream DNS server retrieved by DNS
is actually the address of the machine running dnsmasq. dnsmasq
therefore correctly ignores this address (and says so in the logs) but
then doesn't seem to use the resolv-file given (unless, as I say, I
cause that file to be specified by setting RESOLV_CONF in
/etc/default/dnsmasq).
