Yeah, sad case of using internal structures now breaking.
I wish we could give this feature to the few users, but until upstream makes a move that isn't really feasible. I agree that - until a fix exists - it should be removed to not block others.

The normal strategy here is indeed to remove (but not block any future
sync to bring back working version).

We could as an alternative push it to proposed instead, but that is only
done if we'd have significant delta that we want to retain.

In this case we have a lot of delta (...ubuntu12).
But those are mostly:
- 8 no change rebuilds for new libs - yes it is unchanged for quite a while.
- 3 times compat fixes of when there were fixes available to work with newer bind
- 2 lost version when redoing an uploads

The no change and lost versions do not matter.
Proper compat changes are just what is needed for bind 9.20 for this to make sense - so the old ones can go away (they are still in old publishing and thereby git-ubuntu if ever needed).

Hence ack on the case and removal>demote-to-proposed.

Title:
  Remove bind-dyndb-ldap from Oracular

Status in bind-dyndb-ldap package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Please remove bind-dyndb-ldap from oracular.

  bind9 is currently being updated from 9.18 to the new lts track of
  9.20. This includes some internal changes including making internal
  functions such as dns_name_init static. This breaks bind-dyndb-ldap's
  build process. Since bind9 cannot migrate without a bind-dyndb-ldap
  rebuild, it is currently blocked in proposed.

  Currently, there are no updates upstream being made for 9.20
  compatibility, and dyndb-ldap is only available in old-old-stable in
  Debian as it has failed to build there since then. It has a few FTBFS
  bugs there currently:

  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1064294
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1027825

  The package has no reverse-depends:
  $ reverse-depends -r oracular src:bind-dyndb-ldap
  no output

  Thanks!
