Bug#888500: libnss-lwres: Recommends lwresd, yet this package do not exist (it is virtual). Maybe recommend (or depend) on bind9?
Package: libnss-lwres
Version: 0.93-7+b3
Severity: normal
lwresd appears to be removed from unstable. It appears maintainer removed
lwresd package and binary (symlinks to named I think), but I cannot find
definitive statement from upstream that it is in fact deprecated.
I think lwresd statement in the bind9 itself still works, so libnss-lwres
probably still works with it, but at least README.Debian should be updated
to reflect that.
If it is really deprecated (links to upstream decission appreciated) then it is
probably wise to remove libnss-lwres from Debian as well.
Regards,
Witold
