Bug#1072035: bookworm-pu: package dns-root-data/2024041801
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bookworm
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
X-Debbugs-Cc: dns-root-data@packages.debian.org, meiers.jonas@gmail.com
Control: affects -1 + src:dns-root-data
[ Reason ]
As already mentioned in Bug #1054393, the IP addresses of the B root DNS server
have changed. The aim is to increase redundancy in the event of problems with an
RPKI TAL, see original bug. Since this package is more like a database (like the
one for the timezones) Debian should include the change in Bookworm and Bullseye.
[ Impact ]
According to the operator (University of Southern California), the old IPs will
continue to operate until at least 2024-11-27. After that, Debian users may
experience slowdowns when resolving DNS requests.
[ Risks ]
Since this package is like a database I consider the risk to be very low.
