It looks like bind8 no longer builds the bind9-dev package. It's still
present in
unstable as a cruft package but is uninstallable due to version
constraints, it's
completely gone from testing.
I don't know what's going on here, but at least the current bind9
packaging is not available on salsa, debian/main is on 9.16.22-1 and
according to d/changelog it was uploaded to unstable on the same day as
9.17.19-1... (which has now migrated to testing already)
The new bind9 doesn't mention dropping bind9-dev on d/changelog. Ondrej,
why was it dropped?
Looks like the the commit that added bind9-dev back in 1:9.16.2-2 is
missing from 9.17, and the common base for the branches is 1:9.16.1-1 so
there might be other changes missing, not to mention the changelog
history from 1:9.16.1-2..1:9.16.21-1 is lost from the new version..
I'd have assumed that reverse build-depends are checked before migration
to testing?
