Hi Ondrej,

Looking at #942501 and #942502, the intention seems to be to not
ship bind9-libs in bookworm.

I agree, Ccing Ondrej who has done the heavy lifting on this package.

AFAICT there is no binary reverse dependency in unstable, and #942501
"just" needs a NMU for the removed build-dep.

Ondrej, what do you think?

No, not really. The bind9-libs package contains shared libraries for

bind9, bind9-dnsutils, bind9-host and bind9-utils package.

We could drop bind9-dev, but that was required by the bind9-dyndb-ldap
plugin - that's the thing that might be useful to solve, but then again, RedHat
chose GPL for the project, so there's little we can do in both upstream and
downstream - we certainly don't want to re-licence whole BIND 9 to GPL
because of the bundled plugin. I would rather keep them separate even
if it's painful.

Hum, either I got something totally wrong or we are talking about different things.

This thread is about src:bind9-libs, still on the 9.11 code train and building

    libbind-dev
    libbind-export-dev
    libbind9-161
    libdns-export1110
    libdns-export1110-udeb
    libdns1110
    libirs-export161
    libirs-export161-udeb
    libirs161
    libisc-export1105
    libisc-export1105-udeb
    libisc1105
    libisccc-export161
    libisccc-export161-udeb
    libisccc161
    libisccfg-export163
    libisccfg-export163-udeb
    libisccfg163
    liblwres161

not about src:bind9, building the bind9-libs binary package (yes, this is totally confusing, even to Debian tooling)
