https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BIND9.16

== Summary ==
BIND 9 would be updated to upcoming stable version BIND 9.16.

== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:pemensik| Petr Menšík]]
* Email: pemensik at redhat.com, dns-sig at fedoraproject dot org


== Detailed Description ==
ISC BIND 9 stayed longer time on 9.11 Extended Support Version,
because dhcp and freeipa depended on it. DHCP package no longer
requires bind-export-libs, which new BIND 9.16 does not support.
FreeIPA part bind-dyndb-ldap were also modified to support new
version.

BIND 9.16 includes more easy way to provide DNSSEC
([https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/wikis/DNSSEC-Key-and-Signing-Policy-(KASP)
KASP]).


== Benefit to Fedora ==
Stable version under most the active development is packaged again.
Introduces [https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/wikis/DNSSEC-Key-and-Signing-Policy-(KASP)
DNSSEC Key and Signing Policy] without external tools like opendnssec.
Also client tools from '''bind-utils''' now support yaml export format
(''dig, mdig, delv'').

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
N/A (not a System Wide Change)

* [https://downloads.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.11.26/doc/arm/Bv9ARM.ch05.html#lightweight_resolver
lightweight resolver (lwres)] server and nss client plugin are no
longer provided.
* named version with database backends support (bind-sdb) is also no
longer provided as subpackage. Instead several bind-dlz-* plugins are
offered as runtime loadable plugins, which require modification to
named configuration. They offer the same functionality with just
'''bind''' package and selected plugin.
* ''dnssec-enabled'' option is not supported anymore, it is always set
to ''yes''. ''dnssec-validation'' can be still turned off.

== How To Test ==
System administrators would receive the most recent stable version of
BIND, with improved performance and features.
Prerelease is available on
[https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/pemensik/bind-9.16/ COPR].

== User Experience ==
* named service supports ''dnssec-policy'' option, merging
''dnssec-keymgr'' into ''named''.
* DNSSEC trust anchors were merged into ''trust-anchors'' section,
replacing previous ''trusted-keys'' and ''managed-keys''.
* '''dig +yaml''' provides machine parseable output in YAML format

== Dependencies ==
* bind-dyndb-ldap (required by freeipa)

== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: (What to do?  Who will do it?) N/A (not a
System Wide Change)
* Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No
* Blocks product? product
