Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

>From DpkgTerminalLog.txt, we see the following message:

*** dnsmasq.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? dpkg: error processing package 
dnsmasq (--configure):
 end of file on stdin at conffile prompt

This indicates that there was no reply to the question posed by dpkg
(debconf).  The upgrade process had to ask the question because there is
some local modification on your /etc/dnsmasq.conf, and it could not
figure out how to merge your modifications with the new configuration
file provided by the package.  As such, it expects you to answer how the
conflict should be resolved.  Since the answer provided was an EOF, it
errored out.  In other words, you have to be able to properly answer
dpkg's question in order to proceed with the upgrade.

Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem,
rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I am marking this bug as 'Incomplete'.

However, if you believe that this is really a bug in Ubuntu, then we would
be grateful if you would provide a more complete description of the problem
with steps to reproduce, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu
rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug
status back to "New".
