Description of problem: In the stock FC5 bind(bind-9.3.2-4.1), the file /etc/named.conf is not supplied by the bind-package. The caching-nameserver package(caching-nameserver-7.3-5.FC5) does supply a named.conf. The new bind rpm (bind-9.3.2-20.FC5) contains a named.conf, which clashes with the caching-nameserver already installed: file /etc/named.conf from install of bind-9.3.2-20.FC5 conflicts with file from package caching-nameserver-7.3-5.FC5 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bind-9.3.2-20.FC5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install bind-9.3.2-4.1 2. Install caching-nameserver-7.3-5.FC5 3. Upate bind to bind-9.3.2-20.FC5 Actual results: bind can't install because it conflicts with caching-nameserver Expected results: I'd expect the new bind to not contain a named.conf, so that the caching-nameserver still works, but with a new bind version. Additional info:
caching-nameserver has been obsoleted by bind-config - a 'yum install "bind-*" should fix this for you - there are no conflicts with the bind packages.
