I'm not sure where that apt-get error comes from. (I do indeed have
btrfs-tools on hold, but I don't see why that would prevent installing
bind9.)
Maybe there's a better way to get to that URL (or download the .deb
without first checking the URL).
Maybe it could use dget from devscripts? That seems to work reliable,
but would add a quite heavy-weight dependency. (For now I considered
debian-goodies and devscripts to be of the same level, one for
production machines and one for development machines. This would pull in
the development stuff on production machines. Meh.)
