At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the 
problem,

Upgrade a 10.04 server/mythtv-backend/mythtv-frontend/bind9 server and
dhcp3-server to 12.04.

2. the behavior you expected, and

I expected my resolver, ie bind9, and my dhcp server to work as they
have for years.  The dhcp server assigns DNS, IP's etc as set by the
administrator.

3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as
possible).

All the ubuntu clients and servers upgraded to 12.04 added a second dns cashing 
server.  I already have two bind9 servers on the LAN, adding and requiring 
another less secure dns resolver aka dnsmasq to every machine is unwise.   I 
should be able to uninstall dnsmasq without forcing or otherwise breaking 
things when I have bind9.
$ sudo apt-get remove dnsmasq-base
