Description Chris Adams 2011-02-05 20:47:40 UTC
The bind97 package is 9.7.0-P2, which has a problem handling DNSSEC validation when new DS records are inserted.  ISC recommends using 9.7.2 at a minimum to avoid this problem.

Since AFAIK the main use of the bind97 package is DNSSEC-validating resolvers, and this issue will hit when .COM is signed on March 31, 2011, it should be updated ASAP.

You are right this is important issue, thanks for the report.

Comment 2 Steve Snyder 2011-04-05 14:15:57 UTC
If it is deemed to be an "important issue" then why has no update to the bind97 package been released?

March 31, 2011 has come and gone.
