Tried it again with no luck. Steps I've taken: (On Debian 12 Bookworm) 1. Deleted
dnsmasq package: apt autoremove --purge dnsmasq 2. Installed the package again, and set
NetworkManager to work with DNSMasq. 3. Made sure DNS resolving is working using dig and
made sure it uses 127.0.0.1:53 to resolve DNS names. 4. Created IPsets via ipset create
vpn hash:ip and ipset create search hash:ip to match ipsets used in dnsmasq.conf 5.
Uncommented ipset=/yahoo.com/google.com/vpn,search line from /etc/dnsmasq.conf and
restarted the service systemctl restart dnsmasq 6. After service restart, no ip
addresses appears in either of ipsets. ipset -L Name: vpn Type: hash:ip Revision: 6

functionality is broken of there is some incompatibility with my OS setup. Logs for
dnsmasq show no errors. I would appreciate any insight on how to troubleshoot this On

says that the first component of the value is a domain name to be resolved, not an IP
address. My bad. I tried all options. My /etc/dnsmasq.conf has: ipset=/
yahoo.com/google.com/vpn,search (uncommented example) I also tried running with
--ipset=/ google.ca/test_set option. Same results, nothing is being added to ipsets.
