CHANGES WITH 230 in spe:
+ * DNSSEC is now turned on by default in systemd-resolved (in
+ "allow-downgrade" mode), but may be turned off during compile time by
+ passing "--with-default-dnssec=no" to "configure" (and of course,
+ during runtime with DNSSEC= in resolved.conf). We recommend
+ downstreams to leave this on at least during development cycles and
+ report any issues with the DNSSEC logic upstream. We are very
+ interested in collecting feedback about the DNSSEC validator and its
+ limitations in the wild. Note however, that DNSSEC support is
+ probably nothing downstreams should turn on in stable distros just
+ yet, as it might create incompabilities with a few DNS servers and
+ networks. We tried hard to make sure we downgrade to non-DNSSEC mode
+ automatically whenever we detect such incompatible setups, but there
+ might be systems we do not cover yet. Hence: please help us testing
+ the DNSSEC code, leave this on where you can, report back, but then
+ again don't consider turning this on in your stable, LTS or
+ production release just yet.
+
* Testing tool /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-activate is renamed to
systemd-socket-activate and installed into /usr/bin. It is now fully
supported.
