Hi,

 I noticed that pdns was recently (October) updated to 3.1 from 2.9. As 
http://doc.powerdns.com/changelog.html#changelog-auth-3-1 and 
http://doc.powerdns.com/upgrades.html#from2.9to3.0 notes this is a major 
upgrade that requires schema updates to the database, will cause powerdns to 
fail to start for some configs, may change the answers returned and may 
negatively affect performance.

 This probably should not have been done at all, and definitely not without 
some mention of these issues in the RPM changelog and ideally a postscript to 
fix configs, DB schema, etc.

 We are fortunate that we rigourously test every new EPEL update before we 
update any live servers - but if there are going to be major changes like this 
in EPEL, some way of warning people that use the repository would be useful as 
there are many people out there who trust EPEL not to break their systems.


 Thanks,

 James
