missing dnsmasq-utils package

[Riccardo Pittau]

The dnsmasq-utils package is missing from ubuntu installation, it contains the command dhcp_release that is needed by the neutron dhcp agent to release ip addresses.
This is causing numerous jobs to fail as the dhcp agent can't work properly.

[Dr. Jens Harbott (j-harbott)]

Can you show the local.conf file and stack.sh log where this is happening? It should be installed as dependency for both neutron and nova.

[Riccardo Pittau (rpittau)]

Hi Jens,

I've attached the local.conf file

Also this is the link to one of the failing jobs
https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/172cef948927423ab855374b63c921ea

The devstack logs are:

Thanks

    Include dnsmasq-utils package on all Ubuntu versions

    This package provides dhcp_release tool but in files/debs/neutron-common
    it was listed to be installed only on Ubuntu Precise.
    The same file is also in Nova's packages but there is no restriction to
    Ubuntu Precise only there.
    So on all Neutron jobs it was fine but on Ironic's job where Nova
    wasn't enabled, this package was not installed and caused problems
    in Neutron DHCP agent.
