Title:
  dnsmasq doesn't start on boot because its interface isn't up yet

Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My dnsmasq instance uses "interface=br-vz0" and the interface br-vz0
  is managed manually in /etc/network/interfaces.

  During boot, dnsmasq is started before br-vz0 is created and this
  causes dnsmasq to exit:
