I reformatted over 14.04 and installed 16.04 as a fresh start. I use a
slightly customized server install ISO image that includes my own
preseed file for automation. My approach is to start with a bare-bones
server install on all machines and then install extra packages based on
the machine's function (ubuntu-desktop on workstations, for instance).
According to my installation logs, dnsmasq was installed during an
"apt-get install ubuntu-desktop unity-tweak-tool" on a workstation
(which of those two packages actually resulted in a dependency on
dnsmasq I don't know), and on a server it was installed during an
"apt-get install polipo".
