[Pkg-dns-devel] Bug#865561: Bug#865561: closed by Christian Hofstaedtler <zeha at debian.org> (Re: Bug#865561: pdns_server does not start after upgrade to stretch)

[Ondřej Surý]

You can always use apt-get --no-recommends if you don't want the 
recommended packages to be installed.

I think that Recommends/Suggests should reflect their actual meanings (e.g 
it is recommended to have bind plugin installed under common conditions). 
It should not be changes to workaround settings of apt.

There might be bug if the normal (clean) install with bind plugin is 
broken, but if it's just an interaction with your specific configuration, 
then it is your responsibility to review the packages that are going to be 
installed during the release upgrade.
