> (Another minor problem with your proposal as you phrased it is the following. The existence of /etc/init.d/dnsmasq does not entail that the dnsmasq is installed. The package could have been removed and not purged.)
Correct, but then I wonder what prevents dnsmasq from running even if it's removed (not purged), since its executable is provided by dnsmasq-base, which _is_ installed. But anyway the same logic that prevents it from running can be reused by NM to detect if dnsmasq will indeed start. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959037 Title: NM-controlled dnsmasq prevents other DNS servers from starting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/djbdns/+bug/959037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
