Title:
  NetworkManager uses dnsmasq with negative DNS cache enabled

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since NetworkManager uses dnsmasq to resolve its DNS names, it
  sometimes enables the system to use dnsmasq before the network
  connection has been successfully established. This causes dnsmasq to
  try and fail to resolve some hostnames, it then caches them to its
  negative DNS cache.

  To prevent this from happening I had to add no-negcache to
  /etc/dnsmasq.d/network-manager

  Should this be the default? I don't think any endpoint user benefits
  from negative DNS cache, not even network admins as the DNS system is
  robust enough to handle those.
