I'm not aware of this bug having been manifest anywhere except here and I can't progress it without further information from the submitter. Since the package is working fine for almost everyone, I'm downgrading this to "normal". It's certainly not release critical. Cheers, Simon. -- To UNSUB

Salvatore. The problem occurs if the dnsmasq binary is compiled against libc headers which #define SO_REUSEPORT and then run on a kernel which doesn't support that option. I guess the security builds have picked up SO_REUSEPORT from a libc backport. The fix applied at the time was: http://thekel

I suspect that the proximate cause of this is lack of support for the ECDSA ciphersuite in 2.72. As you pointed out, this works OK in 2.75. 2.72 was a very early release for DNSSEC in dnsmasq, and there have been many changes and fixes between 2.72 and 2.75. Backporting so many changes is not real

Thanks for this. I just checked, and the bug is fixed in later versions of dnsmasq. (I didn't determine exactly which one, but I expect it was around 2.67, when DNSSEC validation was added, and the whole code handling DNSSEC flag bits was re-written.) Therefore in the next release of Debian, this
