Bug 473684 – net-dns/pdns-recursor-3.5.3 version bump

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) 2013-06-18 10:27:00 UTC]

Hi,

please bump net-dns/pdns-recursor to v3.5.2.

This is a stability and bugfix update to 3.5.1. It contains important fixes that improve operation for certain domains. 

Changes since 3.5.1:

  * Responses without the QR bit set now get matched up to an outstanding
    query, so that resolution can be aborted early instead of waiting for a
    timeout. Code in commit ee90f02.

  * The depth limiter changes in 3.5.1 broke some legal domains with lots of
    indirection. Improved in commit d393c2d.

  * Slightly improved logging to aid debugging. Code in commit 437824d and
    commit 182005e.



All you need to do is to copy net-dns/pdns-recursor-3.5.1 ebuild to net-dns/pdns-recursor-3.5.2, but I'll also attache a patch.

Thanks.


Reproducible: Always

No difference between 3.5.1 and this ebuild.

Hi,

please bump net-dns/pdns-recursor to v3.5.3

========== Release Notes ========
Full release notes, with clickable links, are available from:
http://doc.powerdns.com/html/changelog.html#changelog-recursor-3.5.3

3.5.3 is the best version of the PowerDNS Recursor currently available, and we
recommend upgrading to it.

This is a bugfix and performance update to 3.5.2. It brings serious performance
improvements for dual stack users.

Changes since 3.5.2:

  * 3.5 replaced our ANY query with A+AAAA for users with IPv6 enabled.
    Extensive measurements by Darren Gamble showed that this change had a
    non-trivial performance impact. We now do the ANY query like before, but
    fall back to the individual A+AAAA queries when necessary. Change in commit
    1147a8b.

  * The IPv6 address for d.root-servers.net was added in commit 66cf384, thanks
    Ralf van der Enden.

  * We now drop packets with a non-zero opcode (i.e. special packets like DNS
    UPDATE) earlier on. If the experimental pdns-distributes-queries flag is
    enabled, this fix avoids a crash. Normal setups were never susceptible to
    this crash. Code in commit 35bc40d, closes ticket 945.

  * TXT handling was somewhat improved in commit 4b57460, closing ticket 795.

Please bump, as www.airbelin.com doesn't work with the current stable version!!!

[Comment 7 Sven Wegener 2014-03-10 21:53:13 UTC]

Commited, I'll need to have a separate look at the chroot support.
