resolvconf has a long list of conflicts including ifupdown and bind8/9. I've heard of some folks running bind locally on their (large) mail servers for dnsbl lookups (yes, instead of rbldnsd) and other purposes. Would using resolvconf break bind? Aptitude seems to suggest this. Does one need to be extra careful if/when installing this package? What kind of collateral damage does this pagkage cause, if any? Conflicts: bind (< 1:8.3.4-1), bind9 (< 1:9.2.1-7), dhcp-client (= 3.0.1betaRC4-1), dhcp-client (< 2.0pl5-18), dhcp3-client (< 3.0+3.0.1rc11-5), dhcpcd (< 1:1.3.22pl4-7), divine, dnsmasq (< 1.13-2), ifupdown (< 0.6.4-4.1), laptop-net (< 2.21-1), pcmcia-cs (< 3.2.5-1), pdnsd (< 1.1.10par-4), pppconfig (< 2.3.1), pppoeconf (< 1.0), pump (< 0.8.15-1), runit (< 1.8.0-3), totd (< 1.4-4), udhcpc (< 0.9.8cvs20050124-3), webmin (< 1.150-2), webmin-wvdial (< 1.160-3), whereami (< 0.3.3), xisp -- Stan
