Yes, it is. I'll provide a package with a bunch of related changes from Quantal; namely:
- using dbus instead of a config file; - using a different dbus name than the default for dnsmasq; - restarting dnsmasq less often (fixed in using dbus, basically) - avoid refreshing interface config on every route cache entry notification; etc. dnsmasq will still need to be updated to ship the dbus file in dnsmasq- base isntead of dnsmasq, and the biggest, most time-consuming issue is that the dbus name changing patch needs to be adapted to apply to Precise's dnsmasq. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu Precise) Assignee: (unassigned) => Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (mathieu-tl) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959037 Title: NM-controlled dnsmasq prevents other DNS servers from starting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/djbdns/+bug/959037/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
