*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

I'm filing this as a security-affected bug because dns-root-data is in
Ubuntu main and does get occasional security updates.

The dns-root-data fix from questing needs to be backported to prior
Ubuntu LTS releases in order for it to be buildable after July 7, 2026
when the current certificate expires.

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dns-root-data/2025080400

I don't have the capacity currently to help with preparing an update.
