Package: unbound
Version: 1.6.0-3+deb9u2
Severity: normal

Hi!

we have unbound configured as a recursor on most of our hosts,
and we have a few trust-anchors in addition to the root zone's
configured with auto-trust-anchor-file.

One of the covered zone sees rarely, if ever, any queries.

It appears unbound is not maintaining the auto-trust-anchor without
seeing queries however.

Note how the trust anchor for the 172.30/16 reverse zone is almost 2
weeks old:

} weasel@scw-arm-ams-01:~$ ls -lart /var/lib/unbound
} total 20
} drwxr-xr-x 36 root    root    4096 May 16  2018 ../
} -rw-r--r--  1 unbound unbound  794 Nov 12 09:17 30.172.in-addr.arpa.key
} -rw-r--r--  1 unbound unbound 1252 Nov 22 11:18 root.key
} -rw-r--r--  1 unbound unbound  784 Nov 23 05:42 torproject.org.key
} drwxrwxr-x  2 unbound unbound 4096 Nov 23 05:42 ./

I suspect that unbound might miss RFC5011 style updates since it
doesn't query the zone regularly.
