Package: bugs.debian.org
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
today I found DNS in my Network to be degraded.
I quickly figured out that the bind9 service was not running on this debain
host. In fact the service was masked and the binary missing.
I installed the package via apt and everything worked again.
I found that unattended-upgrades remnoved bind9 and some other packages during
its autoremove step.
That probably shouldn't happen however I am not sure if this was a bug in
unattended-upgrades or the dependencies of some of the involved packages.

First, you filed this package against bugs.debian.org, which is for
issues with the bug tracking system itself, not generic issues with
Debian. Because this issue isn't actionable, I'm closing it. See below
for more information on what likely happened here.

bind9 was removed because whatever you had that depended on it was
removed or you somehow marked it as being automatically installed.
Without seeing the complete details of what `apt show -a bind9` would
return, it's not possible to debug. [Also, you're running a Debian
release which is two stable releases behind.]
