Hi Rubén,

I was getting suggestions to have unbound-anchor.timer enabled by
default (even if unbound.service is not) but I'd say this way is
better because it only runs unbound-anchor.servce if unbound.servce
is running, but I might be completely wrong:
I think there is value in maintaining the root.key file even if unbound
isn't running. The rational is that other things (like unbound-host or
packages using libunbound2) might want a current one.

Not maintaining the root.key lead to at least one bug report in Ubuntu
[1] and for that reason, I believe that Ubuntu/Debian [2] should also
adopt a similar approach.

+1
if you can, and you know how to, please keep it (root key) updated. even if it's not used. tomorrow it might get used (the root key) [by the new dude, who enables validation] and you want it to be updated.
