The fix for this issue caused another regression, dnsmasq now doesn't
function correctly as a tftp server either.

I just tried Trusty (dnsmasq 2.68-1), and network manager ships 
/etc/dnsmasq.d/network-manager with:
bind-interfaces

So now dnsmasq only binds 127.0.0.1 for its tftp service:
udp        0      0 127.0.0.1:69            0.0.0.0:*                           
954/dnsmasq     
udp6       0      0 ::1:69                  :::*                                
954/dnsmasq 

...and of course that breaks everything. Removing that file makes tftp
work again.


Mathieu, could you please package the modifications to 
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and to /etc/dnsmasq.d/network-manager 
as a separate, network-manager-local-resolver.deb package, maybe even produced 
by the network manager source code, and Recommented: it from network-manager,

...so that people that want to use dnsmasq as a real server can just
blacklist it without suffering on each new Ubuntu installation?

E.g. for the 500+ schools we maintain here, we could then just Conflict:
network-manager-local-resolver from our main package and forget the
whole thing...

Thanks,
Alkis
