Public bug reported:

This commit in Salsa adds DNS telemetry to PHP. This means the DNS protocol is 
used to phone home and send version information, so updates can be advertised.
https://salsa.debian.org/php-team/php/-/commit/34c857099732413c3220368646adab9dd65b7342

In the deb.sury.org branch, the Debian maintainer is setting the remote address 
to their personal servers, so they can serve this feature to people who consume 
it from their PPA.
https://salsa.debian.org/php-team/php-defaults/-/blob/deb.sury.org/main/php-common.mk
This is already applied and live, as seen in 
https://codeberg.org/oerdnj/deb.sury.org/issues/76

The telemetry related code is not enabled by default in builds. This has
not landed in Debian yet, and we are not sure how it will be integrated
into the distro at all.

On the Ubuntu side, we believe the logic should be removed.
