./net/ldns, Library for simplified DNS programming

[ Image CVSweb ] [ Image Homepage ] [ Image RSS ] [ Image Required by ] [ Image Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.8.4, Package name: ldns-1.8.4, Maintainer: he

The goal of ldns is to simplify DNS programming, it supports recent
RFCs like the DNSSEC documents, and allows developers to easily
create software conforming to current RFCs, and experimental software
for current Internet Drafts. A secondary benefit of using ldns is
speed; ldns is written in C it should be a lot faster than Perl.

Log message:
Don't hard-code SYSCONFDIR.

The default for LDNS_TRUST_ANCHOR_FILE is dubious, since we could use
the unbound from -base, and we don't depend on net/unbound either.
It can be overridden on the command line, though.

Log message:
net/ldns: put version# in version.mk, for use by net/drill as well.

Re-sort PLIST.  No change in installed bits, so no PKGREVISION bump.
