Sorry, I have to apologize.

I manage several hundred Debian machines. Most of them are already
stretch. I was shure that one of the two machines which I checked is
stretch, but it is still jessie. I found out when I tried to gather the
data, which you regested:

>From jessie dpkg.log:

2018-06-24 06:49:52 upgrade dns-root-data:all 2017072601~deb8u1
2017072601~deb8u2

So. Sorry again. The bug is really only in jessie and it came with the
update of dns-root-data for jessie on 2018-06-24.

So hopefully the Debian-LTS team can do something about the problem in
Jessie.
