fair warning if you are upgrading Recursor on FreeBSD via pkg upgrade:
5.0.7 -> 5.1.1
The FreeBSD powerdns-recursor package ships a default recursor.yml
config file but does not convert the recursor.conf to recursor.yml
In our case this resulted in a broken recursor service because it tried
to bind to a port that was not available.
The solution was to generate the yml file by converting the old config:
rec_control show-yaml path/to/recursor.conf > path/to/recursor.yml
mv recursor.conf recursor.conf.obsolete
