Comment (by thozza):

 Replying to [comment:3 vorner]:
 > Hello
 > Hmm. It's good there's the package. But people trying to use it might
 not be so cool. Are you the maintainer? Would it be possible to remove the
 resolver from the package (and place it into some other package, like
 bind10-resolver-alpha, so it is clearly marked)?

 Yes, I'm the maintainer. I'll consider moving the resolver into a separate
 package, but for now I will
 leave it as it is. b10-resolver manpage has a statement that it is an
 experimental proof of concept.
 I'm also telling this to users that file any bug (although there are not
 many yet).

 Maybe the previous maintainer should not package all components. Our
 motivation is that users can
 start using and testing BIND10 in the early stages so we can help catch as
 many bugs as possible.

 I would rather prevent users from getting used to that resolver is
 provided by some package and then
 move it to some another. Now we have bind10 (package with core modules),
 bind10-dns (Auth server, ddns,
 resolver,...) and bind10-dhcp (dhcp4 and dhcp6 servers) and it makes sense
 to me to stay this way.
