Description: Unbound is a validating, recursive, and caching DNS(SEC) resolver.

The C implementation of Unbound is developed and maintained by NLnet
Labs. It is based on ideas and algorithms taken from a java prototype
developed by Verisign labs, Nominet, Kirei and ep.net.

Unbound is designed as a set of modular components, so that also
DNSSEC (secure DNS) validation and stub-resolvers (that do not run
as a server, but are linked into an application) are easily possible.


output from rpmlint:

unbound.x86_64: E: non-standard-uid /var/unbound unbound
unbound.x86_64: E: non-standard-gid /var/unbound unbound
unbound.x86_64: E: non-standard-dir-perm /var/unbound 0700
unbound.x86_64: E: non-standard-uid /var/unbound/unbound.conf unbound
unbound.x86_64: E: non-standard-gid /var/unbound/unbound.conf unbound
unbound.x86_64: W: non-standard-dir-in-var unbound
unbound.x86_64: W: dangerous-command-in-%preun rm
unbound.x86_64: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/unbound $prog

Currently talking to upstream about the problem of including a static ldns shipped with unbound, versus using the real standaline ldns.

The dangerous rm in %preun is the chroot /var/unbound getting cleaned up. The chroot() is currently somewhat variable, eg needing the real /etc/resolv.conf, which is manipulated in the init script, since hard links might not work across /etc/ and /var

I am not sure about the incoherent-subsys warning. It seems similar to other packages used. Using prog=$(basename $exec) did not help.
