[Bug 500484] Re: libvirt conflicts with existing dnsmasq installation

[Soren Hansen]

I don't fully understand this bug report.

libvirt uses dnsmasq to provide dhcp services to virtual networks. It
will not listen on 0.0.0.0. If you have a dnsmasq listening on 0.0.0.0,
it's because you've installed the dnsmasq package yourself (libvirt
pulls in dnsmasq-base, not dnsmasq) and let it be configured to listen
to 0.0.0.0. If it does that, libvirt will not be able to bind to a port
53 on a specific interface.
