Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu's default configuration, Network Manager spawns a copy of
dnsmasq, which breaks DNS lookups for me. It has done this since Ubuntu
12.04, when this was made the default. I've just been following the
workaround that has worked for other people of disabling dnsmasq in
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.

There have been multiple bug reports about the various problems of this
configuration, but it remains the default configuration in 12.10, and
breaks my DNS lookups there, as well.

Someone mentioned I should file a bug. So, why not? It'll just be
ignored like they always are, but fine. You got it!
