• Bug#1110202: "/etc/bind/named.conf.root-hints:2: when using 'view' stat

    From Jonathan Kamens@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 31 22:50:01 2025
    Package: bind9
    Version: 1:9.20.11-4
    Severity: normal

    Just upgraded bind9, got this during the upgrade:

    Installing new version of config file /etc/bind/named.conf ... /etc/bind/named.conf.root-hints:2: when using 'view' statements, all zones must be in views
    dpkg: error processing package bind9 (--configure):

    This is because I use views in /etc/bind/named.conf.local.

    I imagine other people are going to run into this as well. I'm not
    sure what the right fix is, but I felt I should call this out as an
    issue.
