WHAT IS DNSTRACER?
dnstracer determines where a given Domain Name Server (DNS) gets
its information from, and follows the chain of DNS servers back to
the servers which know the data.
Its behaviour is similar to ntptrace(8), which does it for the
NTP protocol.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

dns/dnstracer: Update to 1.10
Changelog for 1.10:
- Add support for EDNS0 (extra big packets)
- Add support for querying of ANY records.
- Add represention of SRV, RP records.
Port changes:
- Take maintainership
- Upstream switched from autotools to a plain makefile; modify the port
accordingly (as a result IPV6 option is no longer offered by the port)
- Install manuals under PREFIX/share/man
Reported by: Repology
Remove more tags from pkg-descr files fo the form:
- Name
em@i.l
or variations thereof. While I'm here also fix some whitespace and other
formatting errors, including moving WWW: to the last line in the file.
- With the rollout of IPv6 for a.root-servers.net, it always
took the IPv6 address even if you used the -4 option.
- Fix false lame server issues with domains which have the
higher domain in it (command.com for example).
Upgrade to version 1.8
- Better handling of timeout (instead of a static value,
start with five seconds and double it each retry)
- Warnings are printed if you receive a different RR type
than the one you asked for (for example when you ask for
an A record and receive a CNAME)
- Fixed problems when records received in the authority
field are shorter than the domain the nameserver is
authoritative for.
- When compiled without IPv6 support on an IPv6 capable
machine the machine tried to query the IPv6 translated
IPv5 address anyway.
- -C caches hosts which haven't answered too.
