Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bind9

I previously was running bind9 on a Feisty box which was upgraded
through apt to Gutsy.  I decided today to wipe that machine and do a
fresh install of Gutsy.  I dropped in my old /etc/bind directory,
installed bind9 and attempted to start up bind with "/etc/init.d/bind9
start.  Bind refused to start and I immediately got this complaint in
/var/log/messages:

Nov 18 00:24:29 zaphod kernel: [  110.744892] Failure registering
capabilities with primary security module.

After flailing around with google and finding absolutely nothing
relevant to my problem, I stumbled across this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gbindadmin/+bug/162821

I curiously installed gbindadmin and played around with it, telling it
to use /etc/bind instead of /var/named.  It created /var /dev and /etc
in /etc/bind and lo, bind9 now starts up and works.  Why isn't this done
by the bind9 package already?
