Description of problem:

The python3-dns package has a bug where it tries to do a compare between a float and an nonetype causing issues. This causes zone transfer issues in the OpenStack Designate project which is using python3-dns

This is only present in CentOS Stream 8 because it's running version 1.15 where the bug is resolved in >= 2.0.0

See bug report in https://bugs.launchpad.net/designate/+bug/1941988

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python3-dns-1.15.0-10.el8.noarch


How reproducible:
See reproduce in https://bugs.launchpad.net/designate/+bug/1941988


Actual results:
Python exception trying to compare float > nonetype

Expected results:
No error, instead checking value for nonetype before comparing

Additional info:
courtasy patch to solve issue as describe in https://bugs.launchpad.net/designate/+bug/1941988 and fixed in https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython/blob/v2.0.0rc1/dns/query.py#L925
