Bug#1103239: all-knowing-dns: service doesn't start at all (Net::DNS incompatibility)

[Manawyrm]

Package: all-knowing-dns
Version: 1.7-6
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

all-knowing-dns is currently broken on Debian trixie/13.
Net::DNS dependency (perl package) was updated, now the API is incompatible to the current release of all-knowing-dns.

Error message when starting service:
> Can't locate object method "main_loop" via package "Net::DNS::Nameserver" at /usr/bin/all-knowing-dns line 75.

I've opened a pull request on 
https://github.com/all-knowing-dns/all-knowing-dns/pull/5
to fix this issue upstream. It was merged (but no new release was created yet).

Ideally, Debian should update it's .service file for systemd to include

[Service]
DynamicUser=true
AmbientCapabilities=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE

and then the version should be bumped to include the fix.
(due to the permission dropping mechanism having changed, see PR)

I'm somewhat unfamiliar with Debian's packaging -- should I ask the software author to create a new release with the fix included?

Thanks for your work
Manawyrm
