-# Build a res_* library distribution from the BIND 8 source
-
-#
-# Usage:
-#
-# Export the BIND 8 source from CVS into a scratch directory,
-# chdir into the 'bind' directory, run this script.
-# Finally tar up the directory.  For example:
-#
-#   cd $scratch
-#   cvs export -r t5b-823 bind
-#   cd bind
-#   perl $bind9/util/mkreslib.pl
-#   cd ..
-#   mv bind libbind8-9.0.0b5
-#   tar cf - libbind8-9.0.0b5 | gzip >libbind8-9.0.0b5.tar.gz
-#

-# We don't want bin/, conf/, tests/, or OLD/

-

-This is the resolver library from BIND 8, provided for legacy software
-needing access to these functions.  Programmers of new software are encouraged
-to use the new lightweight resolver library instead.
-
-See the README.bind8 file for the original README shipped with BIND 8.
