Additional info:
After commenting out the last line of /etc/dnsmasq.conf ("conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d/*.conf"), it starts properly again.
Comment 1 Tomáš Hozza 2014-10-06 06:50:42 UTC 
Thank you for the report. The --conf-dir was extended to include also file extensions. There is comma missing, just before the "*.conf", in the default configuration. I'll update the package ASAP!
