Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal totd has several RC bugs: #672542, #67253 and additionally a number of important bugs. The RC bugs are serious, it intentionally and inappropriately rewriting its own configuration with complete loss of the admin's configuration, and it also completely breaks networking on the system in addition.
This package is redundant. It's primary function is DNS64 by rewriting forward and reverse lookups by replacing IPv4 names with mapped IPv6 addresses (for NAT64). This is now implemented natively in bind9 with a one line addition to its configuration file, making totd redundant. Given the lack of maintainer response, serious RC bugs and that much better replacements exist, I would like to request removal from Debian. It's not of release quality by any means. It could be fixed with an NMU, but it's far better just to switch to using bind9. Regards, Roger -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
