Untargeted the dnsmasq part of it from 12.04.1 as we realistically won't get a change in dnsmasq by then.
Switching back to strict-order is a bad idea for the reasons listed in bug 903854, namely, we'd loose our biggest advantage from using dnsmasq. But there should be a middle ground here where servers would usually be checked like in strict-order and any server not responding in $AMOUNT_OF_TIME is automatically skipped for later queries + a watchdog querying the server from time to time to see if it's back to life. ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Precise) Milestone: ubuntu-12.04.1 => None -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003842 Title: dnsmasq sometimes fails to resolve private names in networks with non- equivalent nameservers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1003842/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
