Folks, let me add my desire for a quick download dig supporting DoH.  It could 
really help with some testing, some ready stuff for Ubuntu 18/20,  
Redhat/CentOS, could make a lot of people happy.   Maybe the libs included and 
we set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or a 'static' link?


It only takes a 'few minutes' more -- once you spend a few hours getting the 
whole environment setup.....  some don't build it all the time.


I'll give ISC Five Stars on Google! 😃

Really, it a couple of extra megabytes of disk space and a couple of extra 
minutes of compile
time.  Dig is not a stand alone component.  It depends on libisc, libdns, 
libisccfg, libirs, and
libbind9.  Thats most of the libraries we build.  It makes no sense to have a 
seperate source
package for dig.
