Public bug reported:
Following line of dnsmasq.conf will not allow dnsmasq to start giving
error "bad hex constant at line x in /etc/dnsmasq.conf" and this despite
the fact that there is no error in mac addresses.
dhcp-
host=a8:6b:ad:4b:83:bf,44:a8:42:fb:a2:df,172.16.30.47,w10-assist1,net:ordi,infinite,set:ordi
With only one of those two mac addresses, all is good, so there is no
error in mac addresses. In the dnsmasq.conf they are other dhcp-host
with multiple mac addresses like
dhcp-
host=a8:6b:ad:4a:d9:d3,44:a8:42:fb:a2:85,00:24:9b:12:71:be,172.16.30.43,w10-pierre,net:ordi,infinite,set:ordi
and they are not rejected.
When copying the default configuration line in a dnsmasq-2.72-3 of
Debian 8.7, no problem.
