Package: bind
Severity: wishlist
nsd needs named-xfer to transfer zones it is secondary for.
Currently the nsd package build-depends on bind, and copies
/usr/sbin/named-xfer to nsd-xfer in the nsd.deb it creates.
This is a very bad thing. Bug report #282237 has the details.
The easiest way out would be for bind to split named-xfer
into a separate deb. Please do this; I believe it might have
other users in addition to nsd.

Hi, Tommi:
It looks like nsd no longer relies on named-xfer or nsd-xfer to perform
zone transfers.
The modern bind9 package no longer ships a named-xfer binary. The 'dig'
command can perform zone transfers, though, and this binary is shipped
in a separate binary package (dnsutils), so I'm closing this bug report.
