• install issue with bionic packaging -- bind9/bionic 1:9.16.3-1+ubuntu18.04.1+isc+2

    Hi all

    Can't seems to find a better place to voice an issue with the
    installation of the latest packaging for ubuntu bionic which has home at-ahttps://launchpad.net/~isc/+archive/ubuntu/bind.


    I meet a dependency issue concerning init-system-helpers which is
    currently 1.51 and is asked to be 1.54. Can somebody confirms that ?

    Hi Marcel,

    this is unfortunately side-effect of how the PPA is provided. The bind9 package needs debhelper 10 to build, but for Ubuntu Xenial, the =
    debhelper
    =3D 10 is provided only in xenial-backports.

    Unfortunately, the PPA has only one =E2=80=9Eknob=E2=80=9C that either = enables backports
    for all Ubuntu releases or none, which in turn leads to bionic-backports
    to be enabled which pulls newer build toolchain which in turn adds =
    dependency
    on init-system-helpers >=3D 1.54.

    Let me try if I can tweak the dependencies, so I can build with a =
    default set
    of dependencies. Meanwhile you can add bionic-backports to your apt = sources.list
    to solve the missing dependency.

    yes it works now:

    1) add bionic-backports
    2) apt update
    3)-aapt install -t bionic-backports-a-ainit-system-helpers-a
    # -a 1.56 is installed
    4) business as usual

    As a user i am very happy with that. Thanks for all your involvement. I wouldn't be hurt if you had better things to do than to fight a
    packaging infrastructure.-a

    Hi Marcel,

    I think I figured it out how to build without any additional extra = dependencies,
    so the next update of the bind9 package for Ubuntu will not require to =
    have
    <release>-backports enabled.

    Thanks for the valuable feedback.

    I can confirm that i have been able to install-a

    without bionic-backports enabled.
