(In reply to comment #45) > Recommendation: include one initscript per service and make the names of > the initscripts match the services they control. Okay, I'll do the changes. > Second, the package is missing some important parts of djbdns -- axfdns, > walldns, and rbldns, for example. While these parts are probably used less > often than dnscache or tinydns, they are well established within DJB's bundle, > and most people will expect them to be included in any package calling itself > "djbdns". Recommendation: include the missing pieces. Yes, they are in the queue and will be released in due course. > Recommendation: split the package into logical subpackages, > following Pavel Lisý's scheme, which makes a lot of sense from an > administrator's point of view (and ought to be immediately understandable > to anyone familiar with how to deploy from DJB's bundle). I understand the point, but when I look at so many rpms/subpackages, it just appears to be confusing to me. Anyway, I'll look at the sub-packaging again and try to do it. I was confused about, the few client tools like dnsip/dnsq/dnsname etc. and with which server(dnscache/tinydns) should I package them or to make a separate sub package for them. > Fourth, DJB's bundle relied upon the multilog program from daemontools to > handle logging, whereas our proposed package writes to log files directly. > But multilog did more than just write to files; it also inserted timestamps, > which our logs lack. Timestamps are essential in system logs, so we must > put them back in somehow. Maybe we could use syslog or bring back multilog. > Recommendation: Restore the timestamps in logs. Yeah, I'm working on the logging part as well, will do the necessary changes. > This package is looking great.

Thanks a lot Tom, I sincerely appreciate it.
