Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.7.2.dfsg.P3-1.1
Severity: normal

While named runs as user "bind" by default, the configuration file directory,
/etc/bind, is owned by root and not writable by anyone other than root.
This effectively prevents named from creating any files in the directory,
for example in the case where dynamic update is enabled.
I suggest making /etc/bind group-writable.
