[Opendnssec-user] OpenDNSSEC 2.1.0 released

When I look at my package manager (apt, Debian unstable) both 1.4.6 and
2.0.4 are available. So likely you can continue to use 1.4.6.
(though that doesn't reflect on the packages.debian.org website, I'm not
sure how that works)

We do not provide such a thing. Ondřej Surý  [1] packages OpenDNSSEC for
Debian, maybe he's able to help you there.

Well, if you end up with a 2.X any other than 2.1.1 and find yourself
required to go over the migration steps I strongly recommend you to use
the migration scripts from 2.1.1. So use the files from this directory
instead:
