I got around to doing some network maintaince, and upgraded the non-critical packages on my router, along with dns-root-data. dnsmasq's version did not change during this operation.
After restarting dnsmasq, the dhcpd was down, and clients weren't getting IPs. After digging a bit (set -x on the init script, and friends), I was able to work back to dns-root-data, and confirmed the package version did change. I saw these bugs, and I saw dnsmasq handles this better in sid - thankfully, I keep sid pinned down for just such a bug :) I upgraded dnsmasq, and I can confirm clients are happy again. Hopefully we can push the migration to testing before more folks get caught in this (although, I guess folks who run their own dhcpd tend to be able to find bug reports such as this -- hey there, other nerds!) Thanks for the fix, and thanks for maintaining these packages, Paul --
