It should not matter; the virtual root involves bind mounting directories into a single location - that could be 4 different partitions, a bunch of subvolumes, or some directories scattered across a single partition, or some combination of those options.Cheers,MattOn 22 Oct 2024 23:36, Michael wro

Hi Rainer,
Doesn't that mean that best practice would be to just ditch "net-dns/
bind-tools" and solely install "net-dns/bind" instead? At least up to
now the latter _also_ provides "nslookup" and "dig".
That is correct. The package now even says as much (since about 12
hours ago!):

Opening a Pull Request to resolve your bug is not just OK, it's

Reading up on the bug you provided, the suggestion is to depend on the
