The current maintainer of sane-backends-extras, Julien BLACHE

Maintaining a package requires time and skills. Please only adopt this
package if you will have enough time and attention to work on it.

Bug#912735: ITP: dnsperf -- DNS server and recursor performance testing tools

[Stefan Nachtnebel]

Thanks for pointing this out and sorry for the wrong depiction.
Nevertheless, I think it would complement pdns-tools, especially
dnsbulktest.

Thanks for the heads-up.
This has changed in the version provided at akamai´s github
repository[1]. As far as I can see, all relevant files have a license
headers and a LICENSE file is provided. Unfortunately the tar.gz[2]
provided at the URL I mentioned in the original post is an old version.

It seems that the version has been updated from 2.1.0.0 to 2.1.1.0g in
version.h. The RELEASE_NOTES have not changed and are still describing
2.1.0.0. There have been a lot of formatting changes and some small
functional changes in the code.

I also wrote an email to Akamai, expressing my intent to package. I am
currently waiting for a response.

My current approach is to mirror the version from Akamai´s repo[1] on
salsa and add the relevant changes for packaging there. With a later
update, I would include patches from other forks on github, after
reviewing them.

This would change the fields in the original post to:
Version: 2.1.1.0g
URL: https://github.com/akamai/dnsperf


kind regards, Stefan

Not sure here. Seems in English "joker" is unusual to describe a
wildcard, unlike other languages. If some native English speaker
could comment?

I'm the author of the original ITP (later an RFP) for this. Thanks for
picking that up again! At the time, the software was licensed under the
ISC license and not Apache2; there was no LICENSE file in the source
tree and not all files had license headers, which would made the ones
that didn't, undistributable.

I was in touch with folks from Nominum back then, but didn't manage to
get this sorted out. Hopefully those issues have been fixed since, but
just wanted to give you a heads-up regardless :)

  Description : converts wildcard expressions to Perl regular expressions

(as created by dh-make-perl)

 In many situations, users may want to specify patterns to match but don't
 need the full power of regexps. Wildcards make one of those sets of
 simplified rules. Regexp::Wildcards converts wildcard expressions to Perl
 regular expressions, so that you can use them for matching.
 .
 It handles the * and ? jokers, as well as Unix bracketed alternatives {,},
 but also % and _ SQL wildcards. If required, it can also keep original (...)
 groups or ^ and $ anchors. Backspace (\) is used as an escape character.
 .
 Typesets that mimic the behaviour of Windows and Unix shells are also
 provided.
