I need to install pdns-server and pdns-backend-mysql 3.4.5 on Ubuntu 16.04. If I use the following command:

If you must use 3.x then go to here:
https://www.powerdns.com/downloads.html
and look under "Legacy releases". I believe these are statically linked and have no dependencies.

Also this also won't work:

sudo apt-get install pdns-backend-mysql=3.4.5
(other combinations such as 3.4.5-1build2_amd64 also don't work).

I can find the package here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/amd64/pdns-backend-mysql/3.4.5-1build2

That's just the mysql backend. For pdns-server see here:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/amd64/pdns-server/

In both cases you'll see that all the 3.x packages were obsoleted before xenial was released. Unfortunately, the final release of xenial included powerdns 4.0.0 alpha 2 which was a broken version :-(

If you *can* use 4.0.x (and it's very good) then you can get the latest stable version from their repository, follow the instructions here: https://repo.powerdns.com/

HTH,

Brian.
