Recent commit fdns.service fixes for Debian 11 drops all hardenings from the fdns systemd unit file. For now it's unclear why upstream changed it. I'll keep eyes on this but IMO it's better to keep the former, hardened fdns.service file intact on Arch Linux. Please report any problems here or upstream until more info is available.

@vendion Nothing out of the ordinary really for a VCS package. A PKGBUILD for a -git (or VCS) package comes with a pkgver() function and makepkg does what it's supposed to do: updating the pkgver accordingly. When I pushed pkgrel 4, upstream's latest commit was 4316b7b. Hence the +g4316b7b part in pkgver here on the AUR. But as the worlds keep turning, by the time you built it on your machine, upstream had moved on and added a few commits, so you see +g710da26, refering to the latest commit in the git repo at build-time.

I decided to change the pkgrel to signal to users that something has changed and a modified PKGBUILD was available. And seeing your comment that worked :-). It's an unfortunate situation regarding fdns.service and I hope upstream will return to a more hardened systemd unit for fdns. In the mean time I just try to keep things afloat...

Okay so I have no clue what is going on here, but I download the latest PKGBUILD

_pkgname=fdns
pkgname=${_pkgname}-git
pkgver=0.9.69+g4316b7b
pkgrel=4
pkgdesc="Firejail DNS-over-HTTPS proxy server - git version"
arch=(x86_64)
url="https://github.com/netblue30/fdns"
license=(GPL2)

and build with makepkg -s, but at the end of the output I see this message

==> Finished making: fdns-git 0.9.69+g710da26-1 (Tue 20 Jun 2023 04:56:48 AM -03)

and sure enough the PKGBUILD I downloaded was modified

_pkgname=fdns
pkgname=${_pkgname}-git
pkgver=0.9.69+g710da26
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Firejail DNS-over-HTTPS proxy server - git version"
arch=(x86_64)
url="https://github.com/netblue30/fdns"
license=(GPL2)

I didn't even know makepkg would modify the PKGBUILD...

@vendion Thanks for the suggestion. Added!

The files used by fdns to block requests such as adblocker, coinblocker, fp-trackers, resolver.seccomp, servers, trackers should probably be backed up in the PKGBUILD. Otherwise, any customizations (additions/removals) gets overwritten with each update.
