In the public release of the Linux C library 4.6.x, bind-4.9.3beta9
will be used. You may have to modify /etc/resolv.conf. The resolver's
default "search" list will be just the entire "domain" name rather
than the sliding window it had before 4.9.2. This will make the
default search list shorter, so folks who are saying "domain a.b.c"
and relying on the implicit "search a.b.c a.b c" will miss "a.b" and
"c". So what you have to do is add this line into your /etc/resolv.conf:

search  a.b.c a.b c

This change is compatible with the Linux C library 4.5.26. Please do
it as soon as possible.

Thanks.

H.J.
