Subject: bind uses old /etc/rc.misc directory

Package: bind
Version: 4.9.3-BETA17-1

The bind package installs /etc/rc.misc/named.  This should migrate to
/etc/init.d/named.  I wrote one - here it is:

#!/bin/sh
# Start/stop the nameserver.

test -f /usr/sbin/named || exit 0

case "$1" in
start)  start-stop-daemon --start --verbose --exec /usr/sbin/named ;;
stop)   start-stop-daemon --stop --verbose --exec /usr/sbin/named ;;
*)      echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/named start|stop"; exit 1 ;;
esac
exit 0

Appropriate changes should be added to the postinst - in particular,
update-rc.d should be called to install links in /etc/rc?.d/*.

The contents of /etc/rc.misc/named are commented out atm - see my
earlier message, where I said I think it should be installed and
started by default.

Ian.
