Fedora 8 shipped with an BIND 9.5.0a6, recently updated to 9.5.0a7.
The release announcement for BIND says:
BIND 9.5.0a7 is a alpha release for BIND 9.5.0.
This is a technology preview of new functionality to be be
released in BIND 9.5.0. New APIs are not yet frozen.
Is this an appropriate release to be putting in a stable Fedora
release? I've encounted a segfault in this version, which I've
reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=400461
I'm concerned about the policies which allow unstable software in
stable Fedora releases. Is it considered acceptable/encouraged to
have alpha versions of software in the stable release? Is there any
policy?
Thanks.
