[Bug 1485316] [NEW] dnsmasq breaks DNS, if not used as DNS server

 

Public bug reported:

I use dnsmasq mainly as a TFTP/DHCP combination and disable the part of
the dns-resolver.

So i use <code>port=0</code> to disable the DNS part. But the init-
script always rewrites the resolv.conf, no matter if DNS is actually
used.

Could you add an option to the defaults-file, which the init-script
checks and dependent on this, rewrites the config-file?
