Package: unbound
Version: 1.13.1-1
Severity: normal
After upgrade from buster to bullseye with same config file, port 
127.0.0.1:8953 was additionally listened for.

From man page, this is "remote-control" port and the default "control-enable" is 
"no".

When adding extra config section "remote-control" as below, the listening port 
127.0.0.1:8953 was gone.

    remote-control:
        control-enable:         no
    server:
        ...

The default setting from man page and the observing behavior mismatch.

This is due to a debian-specific patch, 
debian/patches/0001-Enable-remote-control-by-default.patch,
which turns on the default value for remote-control (but does not touch the 
manpage).

This is done as a fix for #923314 "systemctl reload unbound broken.." -
but there were 2 changes in there actually, one was to switch from
unbound-control reload to sending a SIGHUP, and another was to enable
remote-control by default.

Either of the two should be sufficient to fix #923314.

But I think the second change - switching remote-control to on
by default - is not a justified change from upstream here. It
is not turned on by default upstream, and upstream documentation
says it is not enabled by default, too (and even on Debian we
forgot to fix the manpage together with this change).

To me it looks like we should flip the default back to the default
and remove this patch.

Thanks,
