Description:   Opened: 2005-01-27 06:41 0000 
bind and bind-tools have been out of sync for a long time.  I think that it
makes a LOT of sense to keep these in sync as libraries should probably stay in
sync between the server and the tools.  Actually, I believe that there should
only be one ebuild for both of these, just called bind.  A USE flag should be
created to determine whether the user wants the server or just the tools
installed.

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-dns/bind-9.2.2-r3  
[ebuild  N    ] net-dns/bind-tools-9.2.3-r1  


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -p bind bind-tools
2. compare the results from 1.


Actual Results:  
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-dns/bind-9.2.2-r3  
[ebuild  N    ] net-dns/bind-tools-9.2.2-r3  

Expected Results:  
It should keep the tools and server in sync to ensure that the libraries and
functionality also stay in sync.

My actual results listed are incorrect, and should be:

[ebuild  N    ] net-dns/bind-tools-9.2.3-r1

Has there ben any activity on this at all?  I have not noted any response to
indicate that my request is incorrect, but nor have I seen any response with an
affirmative.  I am still seeing a version mismatch ...

Any updated ebuilds you may have would be appreciated.

I am actually asking that either bind-tools be downgraded [in stable] to match
what bind is at or to mark the stable branch of bind to match bind-tools. 
Ideally, bind will always included bind tools, so perhaps a creation of
bind-tools as a virtual, but I am only suggesting an option here.
