This package is shipping with outdated dns trust anchor information in
/usr/share/dnsmasq-base/trust-anchors.conf causing all DNSSEC
validations to fail.

Rather than correcting it I suggest making the package dependent on
dns-root-data which appears to be the Debian package for maintaining DNS
data.
