Updating the root.hints file with dig
Instead of downloading https://www.internic.net/domain/named.root, you can run:
dig @a.root-servers.net . ns > db.cache grep '^\.\|^[a-z]' db.cache | sort >/srv/named/etc/namedb/root.hints
That will give you a file very close to the BLFS example. Sanitized so no leading spaces are introduced.
Verifying the tarball using gpg
You may want to verify the validity of the downloaded files from
isc instead of trusting the MD5 from the book.
Run these commands if you have gpg installed:
wget https://www.isc.org/docs/isc-keyblock.asc gpg --import isc-keyblock.asc wget https://downloads.isc.org/isc/bind9/<version>/bind-<version>.tar.xz{,.asc} gpg --verify bind-<version>.tar.xz.asc
