Problem importing routes from kernel

[Tom Beecher]

Good day. I'm new to BIRD, and am having an issue that's hopefully a 
simple fix.

I'm running bird 1.2.5-1 on Debian, installed via package. My end goal 
is to use the BIRD process as a RTBH trigger via BGP.

Currently, I'm unable to get BIRD to import kernel routes into the BIRD 
process, aside from the system default route. Interaction with the 
kernel definitely works; when I peer up with my BGP neighbor, our edge 
router with public BGP routes, they import and show up in the kernel 
route table without a problem.

Here's my route table, and relevant sections of the BIRD config, and 
outputs from birdc. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

         persist;                # Don't remove routes on bird shutdown
         scan time 20;           # Scan kernel routing table every 20

         import all;             # Default is import all
         export all;             # Default is export none
}

         scan time 10;           # Scan interfaces every 10 seconds
}

protocol bgp test {

         local as XXXX;
         neighbor A.B.C.D as XXXX;
         import none;
         export all;
}
