./net/ldns, Library for simplified DNS programming

[ Image CVSweb ] [ Image Homepage ] [ Image RSS ] [ Image Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.9.2, Package name: ldns-1.9.2, 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.

ldns drill: updated to 1.9.0

1.9.0

* Make ldns_calc_keytag() available for CDNSKEY RR
  Thanks tgreenx and pnax
* Make ldns_key_rr2ds() available for CDNSKEY RR
  Thanks tgreenx
* Make ldns_rr_compare_{ds,ds_dnskey}() available for
  CDS and CDNSKEY RRs. Thanks tgreenx
* Make drill trace use IPv6 when used with -6
  Thanks Paul Radford
* Unquoted "value" rdata for CAA records fail to validate.
  Follows the long string unquoted syntax from RFC8659, section 4.1.1.
* ldns-read-zone -u fails if a type is the only type in a
  window and the type modulo 256 is equal to zero.
* Intermittent build failure with multi-job
  builds (make -j).
* Add ldns-verify-zone -s option. It checks all signature results,
  instead of passing by when one RRSIG validates. That prints output
  for spurious RRSIGs, the failures for them.
* Fix RR types NSAP-PTR, GPOS and RESINFO to print unquoted strings.
* Fix memory leak when trying to read zones that have equal RRs.
  the ldns_dnssec_*_add_rr() functions now return LDNS_STATUS_EQUAL_RR
  when an already existing RR is tried to be added. This is a API
  change, hence this also bumps the version to 1.9.0
* ensure returning pkt with LDNS_STATUS_OK. Thanks grobian.
* Fix RR Type AMTRELAY type nogateway, to print relay '.',
  and memory leaks in parsing it.
* DSYNC is no longer a draft RR type and compiled by default
* RFC 9824 support: Compact Denial of Existence in DNSSEC
* The HHIT and BRID draft RR types
* If RNG is already seeded, return early.
  Thanks crrodriguez
* Improve error messages. Thanks jschauma
* Use SWIG_AppendOutput to support swig 4.3
  Thanks pemensik
* Homogenize paths for source files during compilation
  Thanks duthils
* ldns-walk fails after update from 1.8.3 to 1.8.4
  Thanks jschauma
* Allow compiled tests to link to ldns statically via
  environment variable. Thanks FGasper and pemensik
* Optionally exclude ZONEMD RRs in ldns-compare-zone
  Thanks gjherbiet
* A WALLET RR breaks TXT signing. Thanks bortzmeyer
* ldns-verify-zone hangs with missing NSEC3 RRs.
  Thanks Roy Arends

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.

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.
