I want to completely remove dnsmasq. I do not wnat it on my system. NetworkManager functions fine without it.
sudo dpkg --remove --force-all dnsmasq-base After reboot NetworkManager still functions as expected. Dependency is a lie. Please remove dnsmasq as a dependency. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992411 Title: network-manager: Please don't Depend on dnsmasq-base Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: dnsmasq in not required...
