** Also affects: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Precise)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
+ [Test case]
+ Requirements: the 'dnsmasq-base' package must be installed; the 'dnsmasq'
package must *NOT* be installed.
+ 1) Start a terminal
+ 2) sudo stop network-manager # network-manager interferes with the test,
since it starts dnsmasq.
+ 2) Attempt to start dnsmasq with the following command:
+ 'sudo dnsmasq --enable-dbus'
+
+ Without the file shipped with dnsmasq-base:
+ dnsmasq: Erreur DBus : Connection ":1.64" is not allowed to own the service
"uk.org.thekelleys.dnsmasq" due to security policies in the configuration file
+
+ With the file; dnsmasq should start successfully.
+
+ Other instances may interfere with the test case; if you get an error
+ such as "address already in use"; first kill off other running instances
+ of dnsmasq.
+
+ ---
+
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/dnsmasq.conf is currently being shipped by
'dnsmasq'. However, other users of the dnsmasq binary as a standalone
binary (e.g. those packages that depend on 'dnsmasq-base' and not
'dnsmasq') may want to use dnsmasq with --enable-dbus. This requires the
above config file; otherwise the name can't be owned by dnsmasq and DBus
messages will fail.
dnsmasq-base should ship the file along with the dnsmasq binary; all
other arch-indep files from dnsmasq can stay where they are.
