Hello again,
I would like to request another Microrelease Exception; this time for
the Bind9 package in Ubuntu Kinetic, Jammy, and Focal. I created a wiki
page with the relevant information here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bind9Updates
Having an MRE for bind9 would help a lot to clear out bugs that have
been fixed upstream between 9.16.2-9.16.38 for Focal and up to 9.18.12
in Jammy and Kinetic. Some of these bugs include:
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/1258003
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/1970252
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/2006972
It may also be worth noting that Debian has a similar method of dealing
with bind9 through stable-backports. When there is a new release
upstream it is added to both unstable and bullseye-backports. As of
writing this the two are currently on 9.18.12 while bullseye is on
9.16.27.
Thank you for your consideration. Please let me know if you need
any additional information.
