No, it does not work: if dnsmasq systemd service starts first, libvirtd cannot start its own dnsmasq instance(s) and **no** VM can be assigned any IP address.

It used to work in all previous ubuntu releases and yes, it is a regression: it is the first time I cannot use dnsmasq **and** libvirtd. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2098119 Title: dnsmasq opens DHCP server ports on all interfaces instead of just on the interface(s) defined in interface= setting Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: ubuntu oracular linux 6.12.0-15-generic dnsmasq 2.90-4 With the following specific configuration in /etc/dnsmasq.conf (due to interference with another DNS server): port=0 The systemd service starts: # echo 'q' | sudo systemctl --no-pager --full status dnsmasq ● dnsmasq.service - dnsmasq - A lightweight DHCP and caching DNS server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dnsmasq.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Wed 2025-02-12 17:31:55 CET; 1min 24s ago Invocation: 3aa94eb3e49c40e8b7cc53f316cc90eb Main PID: 1550822 (dnsmasq) Tasks: 1 (limit: 36889) Memory: 844K (peak: 2.4M) CPU: 28ms CGroup: /system.slice/dnsmasq.service └─1550822 /usr/sbin/dnsmasq -x /run/dnsmasq/dnsmasq.pid -u dnsmasq -7 /etc/dnsmasq.d,.dpkg-dist,.dpkg-old,.dpkg-new --local-service --trust-anchor=.,20326,8,2,e06d44b80b8f1d39a95c0b0d7c65d08458e880409bbc683457104237c7f8ec8d Feb 12 17:31:55 samsung9-ubuntux systemd[1]: Starting dnsmasq.service - dnsmasq - A lightweight DHCP and caching DNS server...
