[resending since my filter was misconfigured]

When updating bind 9.16 I get:

pkg-static: file '/usr/local/etc/namedb/master/empty.db' is missing
pkg-static: package creation failed

===>>> Ignore this error  [i]
===>>> Abort update       [a]
===>>> Retry              [r]

===>>> How would you like to proceed? [I]

Ignoring the error caused bind to install but why the error? I have no reference to /usr/local/etc/namedb/master/ anywhere in my config.

# grep -ir master /usr/local/etc/namedb | grep -v sample
#

Ignoring the error caused a master/empty.db to be created, along with a couple of other files.

# tree master
master
├── empty.db
├── localhost-forward.db
└── localhost-reverse.db

The files are each about 250-300 bytes.

	full of everybody".'
