Advanced, easy to use, asynchronous-capable DNS client library

adns is a resolver library for C (and C++) programs. In contrast with the existing interfaces, gethostbyname et al and libresolv, it has the following features: - It is reasonably easy to use for simple programs which just want to translate names to addresses, look up MX records, etc. - It can be used in an asynchronous, non-blocking, manner. Many queries can be handled simultaneously. - Responses are decoded automatically into a natural representation for a C program - there is no need to deal with DNS packet formats. - Sanity checking (eg, name syntax checking, reverse/forward correspondence, CNAME pointing to CNAME) is performed automatically. - Time-to-live, CNAME and other similar information is returned in an easy-to-use form, without getting in the way. - There is no global state in the library; resolver state is an opaque data structure which the client creates explicitly. A program can have several instances of the resolver. - Errors are reported to the application in a way that distinguishes the various causes of failure properly. - Understands conventional resolv.conf, but this can overridden by environment variables. - Flexibility. For example, the application can tell adns to: ignore environment variables (for setuid programs), disable sanity checks eg to return arbitrary data, override or ignore resolv.conf in favour of supplied configuration, etc. - Believed to be correct ! For example, will correctly back off to TCP in case of long replies or queries, or to other nameservers if several are available. It has sensible handling of bad responses etc.

Versions, suites, and repositories

Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.

Checksums and observation dates

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

1.6.1-4.fc43 / aarch64Observed Sep 1, 2026 to Sep 1, 2026

Verification status: Metadata observed; artifact bytes were not independently fetched or hashed by this catalog import. The digest below is source-reported.

After downloading that exact artifact, compare its bytes with the source-reported expected digest:

printf '%s  %s\n' '56b088577c8168ea7d98ea0b2e9e4495818325e9bc7399d4d8be182555f5ba38' 'adns-1.6.1-4.fc43.aarch64.rpm' | sha256sum --check --strict -

A match establishes equality with the repository metadata value. It does not establish safety or catalog-side artifact retrieval.
