15 With the djbdns package being put into the public domain by the
16 upstream author, djbdns is now available as binary package in
17 Debian/main.
18
19 Please note that this new binary package differs from the package
20 created through the djbdns-installer package available in
21 Debian/non-free; most notably this package depends on a different
22 version of the daemontools package, and installs the programs into
23 a different path (now /usr/bin/). The latter change most probably
24 requires adapting the paths in the ./run scripts in already existing
25 service directories.

27 If you don't want to upgrade to the new binary package, you should
28 stop the installation, and put djbdns on hold, as described in
