Setting up bind (8.2.2p7-1) ... You have an /etc/named.boot file. This is a remnant from a BIND 4.x version, or the Debian BIND package up through 8.1.2. We are not prepared to try and update this for you automatically. You should extract any relevant information, put it in /etc/bind/named.conf, and then remove /etc/named.boot. Note that named.conf uses different syntax than named.boot! Press <enter> to continue You have an /etc/named.conf file. This is a remnant from a previous package version. The new location for this configuration file is /etc/bind/named.conf. Please review your configuration, put everything relevant in /etc/bind/named.conf, then remove /etc/named.conf Press <enter> to continue You have a /var/named directory. Previous Debian packages used this directory to hold zone data files. Please review the contents, move any relevant configuration to /etc/bind as per the instructions in /usr/share/doc/bind/README.Debian, and then remove the /var/named directory. This package uses /var/cache/bind as the working directory, and by default expects master zone files to be put in /etc/bind. Press <enter> to continue Restarting named... new pid is 16071

Hi, Ian: As far as I can tell, these nag prompts no longer exist in the bind9 package, and in fact probably never have, so I'm closing this bug. The only thing in bind9 that looks even vaguely similar to the original bug report is this error exit from bind9's preinst: http://sources.debian.net/src/bind9/1:9.9.5.dfsg-12/debian/bind9.preinst/#L6-L15 (These lines should obviously be deleted now, but I suspect it's impossible to trip this error condition on modern systems.) -- Robert Edmonds [email protected]
