Title:
  knetworkmanager is starting with --no-hosts

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Distribution Kubuntu 12.04.5
  knetworkmanager 0.9.4.0

  After years I gave Networkmanager again a chance and kicked it out
  again immediately.

  Why is it starting dnsmasq with --no-hosts? I found nothing to disable
  this misbeave.

  I can't see any reason for doing this. It sucks only when I can not
  add names to /etc/hosts.

  Crutches like a wrapper script filtering out --host are not a really
  acceptable solution.
