Description JM 2006-05-01 20:16:46 UTC 
The version

dnsmasq-2.30-3.fc5.x86_64.rpm

is broken. I can't start it, I get always the message:

May  1 22:18:38 neo dnsmasq: ISC dhcpd integration not available: set
HAVE_ISC_READER in src/config.h
May  1 22:18:38 neo dnsmasq: FAILED to start up

The same problem occurs with FC4.
Comment 2 Jima 2006-05-01 23:29:01 UTC 
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189775#c5 ; that
message refers to a deprecated feature.  You need to configure dhcp-range and
dhcp-leasefile in /etc/dnsmasq.conf.

Upstream has been notified of this.

Marking as duplicate (otherwise NOTABUG).

Comment 3 JM 2006-05-02 00:24:21 UTC 
I don't use DHCPD from dnsmasq but I have to configure a dhcp-range and a
dhcp-leasefile? Btw. the default /etc/dnsmasq.conf has no dhcp-range and a
dhcp-leasefile as default in the config file.
Comment 4 Jima 2006-05-02 16:49:42 UTC 
The problem was found to be the init script from upstream.  I've patched around
the issue and am releasing dnsmasq-2.30-4.2 to resolve this bug.
