Package: freeipa-server
Version: 4.0.4-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
Bind configuration template (/usr/share/ipa/bind.named.conf.template) fits 
Fedora conventions of config and other files placement, which leads to 
inability to start bind9 service during ipa-server-install which in turn leads 
to failure of the server configuration.
There are 3 main problems in the template:
1) It presumes bind's zone and other data files are placed in /var/named. It 
doesn't exist on my Debian system and these files are placed in 
/var/cache/bind. The quick and easy fix is to change directory directive in 
template to /var/cache/bind and create bind owned /var/cache/bind/data 
directory.
2) Template replaces existing /etc/bind/named.conf.local. But my Debian has 
options section of bind configuration placed in /etc/bind/named.conf.options 
(IMHO default). It causes 2 options sections in the configuration and bind 
refuses to start because of incorrect config. Comment out options in 
/etc/bind/named.conf.options is enough to make it continue.
3) Template includes file /etc/named.rfc1912.zones, where some default zones 
are placed on Fedora. In Debian, I think those zones are being set via 
/etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones.
The nicest thing would be to break template into files corresponding to Debian 
configuration and make ipa-server-install apply those, but maybe replacing 
/etc/bind/named.conf instead of /etc/named.conf.local would be enough (with 
some template tweaks).
Thank you for packaging freeipa though, because it's quite nice piece of 
software missing in Debian ecosystem in my opinion.
