Bug#579194: pdns-recursor 'has no installation candidate.' according to apt-get instal
Alex Kleider
Severity: important
Using Debian Testing (Squeeze) on a Marvel SheevaPlug, an attempt to install
pdns-recursor results in the following output:
alex@plug:~$ sudo apt-get install pdns-recursor
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package pdns-recursor is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package pdns-recursor has no installation candidate
alex@plug:~$
I can find no documentation that this package has been withdrawn and have to
assume that the problem is in the package manager.

If I'm not mistaken, pdns-recursor uses swapcontext which isn't
available on ARM. I've tried to install it on my SheevaPlug a couple of
weeks back when 3.2 appeared, but with no luck.
On the #powerdns IRC channel I was pointed at another library that could
replace/emulate(?) swapcontext, but I couldn't compile that either.
I found this
