It was later pointed out that lwres library (light-weight resolver library) can replace our resolver code in libc at some point. I think once this is done, we'll just remove this the WITH_BIND_LIBS knob, and only install lwres library, and make all other BIND library internal without a knob to expose them. > > What this really means is that all BIND libraries are now internal to > > buildworld (by default, unless WANT_BIND_LIBS is defined), and linked > > statically into various BIND executables. > > these days that there is a dynalically linked base system why do it > the opposite way ?
