I'm running dnsmasq 2.90 on two very similar systems, one is running
xubuntu 23.10, the other is running xubuntu 24.04.  On the xubuntu
23.10 system when I use 'host' to get an IP address I get no errors:-

   chris$ host github.com
   github.com has address 20.26.156.215
   github.com mail is handled by 1 aspmx.l.google.com.
   github.com mail is handled by 10 alt3.aspmx.l.google.com.
   github.com mail is handled by 10 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com.
   github.com mail is handled by 5 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
   github.com mail is handled by 5 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.
   chris$

...but on the xubuntu 24.04 system I get errors which look like
something broken in IPV6 to me:-

   chris@q957$ host github.com
   ;; communications error to ::1#53: connection refused
   ;; communications error to ::1#53: connection refused

this looks like either yourt ipv6 is not configured or dnsmasq does not listen on ::1.

Does xubuntu 24.04 try IPV6 by default whereas xubuntu 23.10 doesn't?
Is there some obvious bit of configuration I can change to fix this?

did you look into /etc/resolv.conf ?

(Both systems are on the same LAN with DNS provided by the same router)

The dnsmasq.conf file on both systems is the same, and pretty trivial:-


   listen-address=127.0.0.1
   bind-interfaces

And this explains why dnsmasq only listens on ipv4
