Er, sorry, here's the text again without the link tracker: ---
After updating to Trixie (`pdns-recursor 5.2.4-2` and `5.3.0-1`), I'm seeing the following message in the logs every hour: > msg="Exception while performing security poll" error="Found . in wrong > position in DNSName: recursor-..security-status.secpoll.powerdns.com." > subsystem="housekeeping" The `DNSName` string is generated by https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/blob/rec-5.2.4/pdns/recursordist/secpoll-recursor.cc#L46 . That uses macro `PACKAGEVERSION`, which is set by https://salsa.debian.org/debian/pdns-recursor/-/blob/debian/5.2.4-2/debian/rules#L22 : > CXXFLAGS += -DPACKAGEVERSION='"$(DEB_VERSION).$(DEB_VENDOR)"' Since the result is just a single dot, it looks like the `DEB_VERSION` and `DEB_VENDOR` variables are empty. Solution: include `default.mk` as in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/pdns-recursor/-/commit/dfe697df94abcbf33d536d1f6799c1532c499379
