BIND stub resolver library for special use cases

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

This package provides the ISC libbind DNS resolver. This port is not for general purpose use and has known issues; it is intended *only* for special cases where software relies on resolver internals and cannot be adapted to the standard resolver in libc or use an alternative library. There are symbol conflicts; expect crashes and corruption in some cases.
