Since RedHat is probably not going to change the behavior of the caching-nameserver package...what do you want to do with that package now?
The options are: (1) put it back as is ... this is an upstream issue (and put an entry about not using caching-nameserver on DNS Zone controller boxes in the FAQ).
3 emails today re broken nameservers doesnt make that a good option IMHO
(2) File a bug report against caching-nameserver at RedHat and see what they say, leaving the current caching-nameserver update in testing.
Yes - a. If config edited it shouldnt splat on upgrade - ok on install (can rpm tell the diff).
b - shouldnt stop if running
(3) Change the package specfile so that it behaves the way we think it should.
again - if we can tell the diff between install and upgrade then yes ...
