Hi Stéphane,

Changing the default of dnsmasq to bind-interfaces wouldn't have been a very good solution because some people run dnsmasq without installing those other packages and rely upon the "unbound" mode. The implemented solution is better because the cases of dnsmasq being forced into bind-interfaces mode will be fewer. I guess the only risk of breakage is in cases like the following. Someone is using dnsmasq and requires unbound mode, has installed lxc but disabled it. She upgrades (getting a new lxc in the process) and finds that dnsmasq no longer works as expected. I'm certainly not saying that this is a showstopper, just that risk of malheur isn't nonexistent.
