thank you for your reply. that forum thread already hints at a freshly created bugreport at <https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177491>
will this be fixed for leap 15.2 etc? why are these kind of bugs being introduced?
I take the blame. I was only recently tasked with maintaining the bind packages and immediately a set of CVEs were reported. Rather than go through the process of finding the patches and backporting them to the currently maintained package versions (9.11), I decided that it would be time to make a jump to the most recent version to benefit from all the recent developments and to keep in sync with upstream. In the aftermath, taking smaller jumps might have been better, but the intermediate versions were not really supported, so there you have it. When the upgrade was submitted, immediately problems started to appear in that, in some configurations (did I say "QA"?), bind would not resolve names any more and analyzing that problem took quite some time. Eventually we found that it was due to the change in the handling of DNSSEC and, in order to get things going again, QA changed their configurations and bind 9.16 was thus released. That it did carry a number of other problems, eg in the upgrade process, was only discovered afterwards and I am working on them. I do apologize for this, I should have been much more careful and I promise to be that in the future.
