Update to newer upstream version - 2.45.
Version of dnsmasq previously shipped in Fedora 9 did not
properly drop privileges, causing it to run as root
instead of intended user nobody.  Issue was caused by a
bug in kernel-headers used in build environment of the original
packages. (#454415)

New upstream version also adds DNS query source port
randomization, mitigating DNS spoofing attacks. (CVE-2008-1447)

ChangeLog:

  * Mon Jul 21 2008 Patrick Jima Laughton  2.45-1

  - Upstream release (bugfixes)

  * Wed Jul 16 2008 Patrick Jima Laughton  2.43-2

  - New upstream release, contains fixes for CVE-2008-1447/CERT VU#800113

  - Dropped patch for newer glibc (merged upstream)");
