I have been using a mix of LibreRouter config and what was the old notes, and actually was not including lime-proto-anygw 

I was including dnsmasq-lease-share. 

I will now check with your response from SAn about using shared-state-dnsmasq_leases instead and what effect it has

What might be usefull is to understand about how these packages actually work or at lease what files it generates

So now lime-proto-anygw depends on shared-state-dnsmasq_leases instead of dnsmasq-lease-share. Sorry about this! We will fix the docs.
