For the following answers to your queries, I used both the new and previous versions of dnsmasq-base with identical results: What's the contents of the /etc/dnsmasq.d directory? There is a symbolic link in this dir: libvirt-daemon -> /etc/dnsmasq.d-available/libvirt-daemon sudo cat /etc/dnsmasq.d-available/libvirt-daemon bind-interfaces except-interface=virbr0 sudo cat /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml <!-- WARNING: THIS IS AN AUTO-GENERATED FILE.

Device virbr0 is installed by the libvirtd daemon. libvirtd gets an unexpected error when dnsmasq is called and then the address record for virbr0 is withdrawn. This problem goes away when reverting back to dnsmasq-base v2.86-1.1 The attached text file provides relevant status reports which illustrate this problem.
