Why is localzone not working in dnsmasq?

Question

linux

I want all domain names in the *.local zone to come off on my machine (Linux Mint 19). I found several manuals, based on them I made dnsmasq settings:

/etc/dnsmasq.d/local.conf

listen-address=127.0.0.1        # принимаем запросы на локальном адресе
interface=lo          # слушать только интерфейс
domain-needed           # никогда не пересылать адреса без доменной части
bogus-priv              # никогда не пересылать адреса из немаршрутизируемого пространства
strict-order            # пересылать запросы, с первого и по порядку
no-resolv               # не использовать /etc/resolv.conf
server=77.88.8.8        # адреса серверов провайдера
server=77.88.8.1
address=/local/127.0.0.1 # адрес и имя нашего компьютера
log-queries
log-facility=/var/log/dnsmasq-queries.log

/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
dns=dnsmasq

[ifupdown]
managed=false

[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf

option rfc3442-classless-static-routes code 121 = array of unsigned integer 8;
send host-name = gethostname();

request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
        domain-name, domain-name-servers, domain-search, host-name,
        dhcp6.name-servers, dhcp6.domain-search, dhcp6.fqdn, dhcp6.sntp-servers,
        netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope, interface-mtu,
        rfc3442-classless-static-routes, ntp-servers;
prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
timeout 300;

Then rebooted. I check ping al.local , the answer is:
ping: al.local: Неизвестное имя или служба
The dnsmasq logs have the following:

Jan 24 16:39:28 dnsmasq[7798]: query[A] al.local from 127.0.0.1
Jan 24 16:39:29 dnsmasq[7798]: query[A] al.local from 127.0.0.1
Jan 24 16:39:31 dnsmasq[7798]: query[A] al.local from 127.0.0.1

Why can't it work?
