Package: pdns
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
Policy 4.13 says:
Some software packages include in their distribution convenience
copies of code from other software packages, generally so that users
compiling from source don't have to download multiple packages.
Debian packages should not make use of these convenience copies unless
the included package is explicitly intended to be used in this way.[1]
If the included code is already in the Debian archive in the form of a
library, the Debian packaging should ensure that binary packages
reference the libraries already in Debian and the convenience copy is
not used.
Unfortunately, Debian's PowerDNS package seems to use the local
convenience copy of PolarSSL that is shipped with PowerDNS upstream.
Please consider using a Debian PolarSSL.
I am already working with upstream to have this added as a configure
option.
Greetings
Marc
