If the RPM doesn't do that, is there documentation / what is the recommended way to install PDNS as a service when installed manually with an RPM?<br><br>- Should I just be able to uninstall the package using my package manager and then install the RPM as a drop-in replacement?</blockquote></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Nick</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 12:02 PM, Nicholas Williams <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nicholas@nicholaswilliams.net" target="_blank">nicholas@nicholaswilliams.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I know this is off-topic, but have you ever used `zypper dist-upgrade`?

I don't like the idea of going without security updates.<br>
