Fellow earthicans...

Florian Weimer requested in #498218 that we update pdns-recursor to include 
multi-part TXT handling. Honestly I'm not sure whether it should be 
updated in Etch as the functionality was missing all the time since Etch. 
And it doesn't break SPF altogether. Single TXT entries like

foobar   IN  TXT  "foo"

work well. Just that entries like

foobar   IN  TXT  "foo" "bar"

do not get returned at all. So SPF still seems to work for me.

This does not apply to the Lenny package. The 3.1.5 version in Lenny 
contains this feature already.

I have prepared a binary package at 
http://people.debian.org/~haas/pdns-recursor/ which works as expected.
It was built with pbuilder.

The interdiff between debian/3.1.4-1+etch2 (currently in Etch) and 
debian/3.1.4-1+etch3 is a tad larger and can be viewed at 
http://people.debian.org/~haas/pdns-recursor/patch0.patch
It mainly consists of the upstream's patchset 996 
(http://wiki.powerdns.com/cgi-bin/trac.fcgi/changeset/996).

Let me know if I have to do anything to help getting it into Etch if 
desired.

Cheers
 Christoph
