Oh, thanks, that never occurred to me even though it being part of
external/bsd/bind is a strong indicator.
What still confuses me is this:
# PKG_PATH=http://localhost

'host' is a DNS tool, it does nameserver queries.
Hi,
while moving from 6.0.5_PATCH to 6.0.6_PATCH and from 2014Q2 to 2014Q3
I noticed this:
$ host localhost
Host localhost not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
I can't resolve localhost with `host' and `pkg_add' while `ping',
`telnet' and `ftp' seem to honor /etc/hosts.
Both /etc/hosts and /e
