[Dnsmasq-discuss] How to get rid of AAAA forwards ?

[reiner otto]

I have dnsmasq installed on an embedded system, with a mobile internet connection. IPV6 is completely disabled in the kernel, for all interfaces.
In the logs I still see a lot of messages like these ones:
May 29 07:41:32 localhost dnsmasq[3604]: query[AAAA] edpn.ebay.com from 192.168.60.1
May 29 07:41:32 localhost dnsmasq[3604]: cached edpn.ebay.com is <CNAME>
May 29 07:41:32 localhost dnsmasq[3604]: forwarded edpn.ebay.com to 8.8.8.8
May 29 07:41:32 localhost dnsmasq[3604]: reply edpn.g.ebay.com is NODATA-IPv6

So the request is forwarded, althogh the result is very predictadle, generating unnecessary traffic.

How to avoid these unnecessary forwards ?

(I would even apply a "dirty hack" to some src of dnsmasq, in case you can give me an initial hint.)
