| I am missing your point. The documentation is readily available from both the RTD and the FTP along with the source tarballs.
The sources are in Sphinx doc format, so everyone can modify and build in whatever output format sphinx-build provides: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/man/sphinx-build.html
Are you really complaining about the lack of handholding because you want to build the documentation yourself and just can’t download it? Because it really seems like the case here.

be viewed at [https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html](https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html).
Man pages for some of the programs in the BIND 9 distribution
are also included in the BIND ARM.

can be found in the ISC Knowledgebase at

Additional information on various subjects can be found in other

No, I was correct the first time, but I had the wrong version.
It is a 9.18.9 tarball, not 9.18.21. Checksums are correct for
that README.md.

### <a name="build"/> Building BIND 9
For information about building BIND 9, see the
["Building BIND 9"](doc/arm/build.inc.rst) section in the
BIND 9
Administrator Reference Manual.
The checksums correct for that
version of README.md.
I think I must have mistakenly cut
& pasted from the source tree in GitLab for 9.18.

Not sure how this works, but I'm looking at what came out of the 9.18.21
tarball and it doesn't build the PDF, and neither does README.md contain
the build instructions:
