Huh? -4 added bind9 dependency.. and the only consumer (freeipa-server)
seems to work fine with this version. The keytab is created by the IPA
server. And the reason why it took a few iterations to get things
straight was that the bind9 setup phase in freeipa-server didn't bail
out when in fact it had failed (or such, can't remember anymore).

Nah just the changelog is wrong, it should say "bind group".

it's not useful without freeipa-server, so feel free to drop it
