Bug#410901: O: dnsdoctor -- DNS (Domain Name System) checking tool



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal


I intend to orphan the dnsdoctor package. Because I leave Debian.

The package is complicated and strongly depends on Ruby.

It seems unmaintained upstream. May be a merge with zonecheck (same
code base) should be considered.

The package description is:
 DNSdoctor is intended to help solving misconfigurations or
 inconsistencies. It will help you by looking for potential errors and
 give you a description of the problem and refere you to RFC or other
 documents; but of course it is still recommanded that you have some
 basic knowledge of how the DNS works.
 The DNSdoctor configuration file reflect the policy to use. You can
 let it select the best test set to apply when checking a zone (use of
 a reverse delegation profile for .ip6.arpa or .in-addr.arpa, and a
 generic profile for other TLDs); but on the other hand, you can also
 force the use of a particular profile or create a new one (for example
 to test RFC compliance). This package is the command-line version.
