----

When setting an IPv6 address for the bogusnxdomain option in dnsmasq, the server fails to start. IPv6 addresses should be supported. From the [[https://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq-man.html|dnsmasq manpage]]:
-B, --bogus-nxdomain=[/prefix]
Transform replies which contain the specified address or subnet into "No such domain" replies.
IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.

When setting an IPv6 address like this:


config dnsmasq
	...
	list bogusnxdomain '2606:4700:4700::1111'
	...


The server will fail to start:

Line 25 of /var/etc/dnsmasq.conf.cfg01411c:

IPv4 addresses work fine.
