Binary package hint: dnsmasq

dnsmasq no longer works as dhcp server when launched from libvirt on up to date hardy.

daemon.log has (repeatedly):
dnsmasq[7999]: no address range available for DHCP request via vnet0

dnsmasq is running with:
$ ps auxww | grep [d]nsmasq
nobody 7999 0.0 0.0 14696 1020 ? S 15:47 0:00 dnsmasq --keep-in-foreground --strict-order --bind-interfaces --pid-file --conf-file --listen-address 192.168.122.1 --except-interface lo --dhcp-leasefile=/var/lib/libvirt/dhcp-default.leases --dhcp-range 192.168.122.2,192.168.122.254

This used to work until a recent update (but I haven't narrowed down the package that broke dnsmasq).
