To spare search and debug, here is the diff:

ADD: A.DNS.BR AAAA 2001:12FF:0:0:0:0:0:10

So are you're saying IPv6 glue records for various nameservers have been added to the root or that they have removed from there?

On my diff I see only the many AAAA records added.

I dont think there were many deletes I did not yet count them. I dont do
it automatically.

I have noticed with some versions of bind can raise issues with with
loss of IPv6 connectivity.

That issue could be wellknown routers with temporaryly disabled IPv6
stack, for security reasons.

That issue could as well be a natural desaster.

Maybe there is another issue with bind?

I am using the new root.zone file on BIND 9.2.3
That machine has Linux 2.2.19 without IPv6 stack.

I did not encounter any problems yet.

Kind regards,
Peter and Karin
