Hello E, May I ask for your reason, why are you trying to explicitly block IPv6 in year 2021? Unless you have public IPv6 route, your system should work just fine with any AAAA requests they make.
src/dnsmasq -d --port 2053 --conf-file=/dev/null --log-queries --address=/./:: This seems to do what you wanted, it is recent code from dnsmasq. But my question remains. What is a problem with IPv6 if you just do not have IPv6 connectivity? Any programs or systems needing this tuning need to fix themselves, not by dnsmasq.
