Public bug reported: dnsmasq may be started before all interfaces are available. In such cases dnsmasq may quit or never bind to upcomming interfaces. In both cases dns name resolution wont work.
I could notice this together with dynamicaly created interfaces by - VMware Workstation - VBox-Interfaces - KVM-Interfaces restarting dnsmasq after these interfaces are started solves the problem, but until then dns-name-resolution wont work as expected.
