Nicholas Bamber has worked really hard and has updated the Debian
package to use MaraDNS 2:

The big thing to keep in mind when updating from 1.x to 2.0.05 is that
MaraDNS and Deadwood can not use the same IP.  MaraDNS only serves
local (authoritative) records; all recursion (records on other
machines) is handled by Deadwood.

I have some hints on updating from MaraDNS 1.x to 2.0 here:
