    Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

    First, trying to build djbdns myself on Trixie and failing miserably.
    Next, wondering if packages happened to actually exist.
    Third, finding djbdns-conf and being confused at the point of it if the actual software was not packaged.
    Fourth, using apt-file to search for individual binaries and realising that axfrdns, tinydns, etc. are all in fact packaged, I just did not find them initially.

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
    ineffective)?

    apt(-cache) search djbdns

    * What was the outcome of this action?

    A few packages but not the ones I needed.

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

    Seeing all packages from src:djbdns listed.
