Termux-packages: php dns_get_record not working
Many php projects uses the dns_get_record function to test if user is registering a valid email address.
The following will always return false, but should return dns record as an array
<?php
$server = 'google.com';
print_r(dns_get_record($server));

PHP needs the dns_search function provided by either libsocket, libresolv, or libbind. The closest I can find in termux-packages is in the dnsutils package which provides bind client commands such as nslookup as well as libbind9. This will require, and still might not work, that the dnsutils package be patched create a symlink from libbind9 to libbind so that PHP's configuration can find it, or the PHP configuration files be patched to look for and link to libbind9 rather than libbind
