** Description changed: ============ SRU justification =========== Impact: lxc (by way of lxc-net) fails to start when dnsmasq is installed Development fix: install a dnsmasq.d file to prevent the system-wide dnsmasq from binding to lxcbr0 Stable fix: same as Development fix Test case: - sudo apt-get purge lxc - sudo apt-get -y install dnsmasq - sudo apt-get -y install lxc + sudo apt-get purge lxc + sudo apt-get -y install dnsmasq + sudo apt-get -y install lxc Regression potential: There should be none, since we are simply telling the system-wide dnsmasq (if any) not to bind to the lxcbr0 which our own dnsmasq instance will bind to. ========================================== If dnsmasq is installed and running as default, it will bind all interfaces. As a result lxc can't run dnsmasq against lxcbr0 (and same with libvirt and virbr0). At the least this should be documented in lxc. Preferably we'd find a way to have dnsmasq be less of a bully.
