Debconf doesn't support any backend database yet, however once it does ldap

Yes, you are correct. The sections I was looking at are non-free/net for
dnscache, and non-free/misc for daemontools.
These will both be source packages, with build-$PACKAGE scripts, just like
qmail.
The license is:
"You may distribute copies of dnscache-1.00.tar.gz, with MD5 checksum
67d51c540
I know others have expressed this, but a big reason we wind up with slower
release cycles is we have a stable unstable. i.e. unstable is rather
stable. Most of the other distributions start with the software that will
be released by the time they release and start working with it early.

Hi,

So dpkg must be moved to non-us because it contains an implementation
of a cryptographic hashing algorithm (MD5)?

ddclient is used to update your (dynamic) IP address at dyndns.org.
Questions:
1. Section net or admin?
2. The program can use a config file to store the hostname and
dyndns.org username and password. This is convenient if one is running
it automatically (when dhcpcd gets a new ip, for example).
