Is there any official method for the paranoid to rebuild the .deb with the patch file from the official site(in this case,www.isc.org)? I believe it should be something like this: 1. apt-get source bind 2. wget the pacth file from www.isc.org 3. apply the patch 4. dpkg-buildpackage 5. dpkg -i bind*.deb is the method recommended? -- Patrick Hsieh<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GnuPG Pubilc Key at http://www.ezplay.tv/~pahud/pahudatezplay.pubkey MD5 checksum: b948362c94655b74b33e859d58b8de91 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
