Dear Release Team,

there's a bug affecting pdns in stable (jessie): #798773

Upgrading -to- the jessie version from wheezy works fine, but
subsequent upgrades in jessie fail if users don't strip the config
file of comments.

This is quite bad for security updates, so please consider the
attached debdiff.

(Fixed in sid.)

Many thanks,
--

+  * Fix upgrades with default configuration.
+    The postinst script used to do a "grep include" on pdns.conf, which
