According to the discussion dnsmasq will revert to the upstream intended behavior. I added an open impish task to reflect that.
At the same time this makes network-mamager expose the test issue we initially found it with. An example can already be seen in PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/4595/+packages TestLog: https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-impish-ci-train-ppa-service-4595/impish/amd64/n/network-manager/20 Note: I'm not sure if all of the test fails there are due to this change. ** Also affects: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: High Status: Fix Released ** Also affects: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Hirsute) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Hirsute) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Impish) Status: Fix Released => Triaged ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu Hirsute) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1894619 Title: [2.82 regression] router announcements have 'forever' lifetime by default Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Status in dnsmasq source package in Groovy: Fix Released Status in network-manager source package in Groovy: Invalid Status in dnsmasq source package in Hirsute: Fix Released Status in network-manager source package in Hirsute: Invalid Status in dnsmasq source package in Impish: Triaged Status in network-manager source package in Impish: New Status in dnsmasq package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: The default lifetime was changed to 1 day in 2.82 in the change corresponding to this changelog entry: Change default lease time for DHCPv6 to one day. Fine, but the same commit also did this: Alter calculation of preferred and valid times in router advertisements, so that these do not have a floor applied of the lease time in the dhcp-range if this is not explicitly specified and is merely the default. And that change is buggy and causes advertisements to have infinite lifetime, when you are using the default.
