[Bug 857294] Re: Creating hotspot leads to endless connect/disconnect loop

[Clint Byrum]

tankdriver, I think the address in use error may be a red herring, as
thats what happens if you rapidly shutdown and start back up a listening
socket without using the SO_REUSEADDR socket option. dnsmasq is
basically saying that it can't listen because there may be existing
half-closed sockets on the port it wants to listen on.

That said, it needs to be investigated in both network manager and
dnsmasq, so marking as Medium importance in both.

** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Medium
