Bug Description

This was apparently fixed for Hardy in bug #257682.
But problem is present in Xenial, Zesty and upstream https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=822562

The DIG_SIGCHASE is present in some commands in the build log, but not for those compiling bin/dig.

On Xenial:

$ dig +sigchase
Invalid option: +sigchase
...

On Bionic:
$ dig +sigchase
No trusted keys present

So it appears that the problem no longer exists on Bionic: dig does understand the option.

Since this would be a feature change for an uncommon use case, it is unlikely that it will be fixed in existing stable releases so I'm marking this Won't Fix for the stable releases. Feel free to comment with a justification against https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates if you disagree.
