Hi Christophe,
> I think it is preferable to minimize the dependencies by default.
yes, I agree. BIND is a fundamental part of the network infrastructure,
and I'd rather not have all kinds of esoteric features enabled that I
don't need. The more features we compile in, the more potential there is
for abuse.

Yes, I agree. Users who do need those features should have the ability
to configure an override in their ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix file (or in
configuration.nix) to make sure that BIND comes with those features that
they want.
Take care
Peter
