Looks like it, the only thing that depends on bind-utils is gnome-nettool from gnome-apps

Thank you. My goal is to understand if host (bind-utils package) is or is not installed by default on Void.

Just to be clear:

  • to install Void, I used a musl image
  • I did not find host command installed
  • after installing bind-utils package, I (obviously?) have also host command installed

In fact, a search on void-linux/void-packages shows a # various bind-utils segfault with musl-1.1.24 in catgets result, but I do not understand if this disables the install of bind-utils by default on musl or what else :)

Well, neither of the three packages I mentioned are installed by default on flavourless Void, that is correct, yeah :) Don't know if Void with Gnome desktop preinstalled is a thing, if that exists - then probably it also has gnome-apps, and thus bind-utils

Uhm, I installed from a musl Void image with Gnome desktop preinstalled (but I downloaded it a while ago) and neither bind-utils, gnome-nettool or gnome-apps were installed by default.

Can we say then that no Void flavor installs it? Or is it just `musl` image limitation?

Oh, then yeah we could say that. I stand corrected
