installing the pdns-static-2.9.6-1 rpm i get the following list of provided files:
powerdns]# rpm -ql pdns-static-2.9.6-1
/etc/init.d/pdns
/etc/powerdns
/etc/powerdns/pdns.conf
/usr/bin/pdns_control
/usr/bin/xdb-fill
/usr/bin/zone2sql
/usr/sbin/pdns_server

this appears to be the correct rpm for redhat 8.0 however no support files for mysql?

installing the pdns-2.8-1.i386.rpm i get the following list of files:

we have mysql support, however this will not run on redhat 8.0

Now if i remove pdns-2.8-1.i386.rpm and reinstall pdns-static-2.9.6-1 rpm the 2.8-1 install leaves all mysql realted files in place so now the 2.9.6-1 installation works? 

Is this a safe installation?

When I compile all goes well, then i get the following when i run pdns:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/pdns monitor
pdns: Mar 18 17:02:47 Unable to load module '/usr/local/lib/libgmysqlbackend.so': /usr/local/lib/libgmysqlbackend.so: undefined symbol: _ZN11GSQLBackend6lookupERK5QTypeRKSsP9DNSPacketi
Mar 18 17:02:47 Unable to load module gmysql

this is RH 8.0 on a quad Xeon 2.6gig with 2gig ram

sorry for the lengthy email...
