Bind errors during boot

Hi,
I'm on a fully updated Arch-X86_64/KDE system with a wired Ethernet connection.
Although the system seems fully functional, I noticed several BIND errors during the boot as detailed below (similar messages appear more than once in the journal).
I'm using dnsmasq if that's related.

Please advise!

Re: Bind errors during boot

I have seen those too, but on ipv4-only network. Notice that these errors are only for ntpd and only for ipv6 addresses.
