Not if you have bind9 installed. lwresd appears (from its description)
to be a stripped down version of bind9. Also, bind9 depends on
liblwres1, so we can infer that it provides or uses that service itself.

I don't believe so, but check the documentation. :)

I don't either, but any Debian packages that require it would probably
depend on liblwres1 directly.
