We are ripping out the old RPMs. Let's figure out what RPMs they are:

# rpm -qa | grep bind
bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6
bind-libs-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6

Let's start removing them:

# rpm -e bind-libs-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6
error: Failed dependencies:
	libbind9.so.0 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	libdns.so.22 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	libisc.so.11 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	libisccc.so.0 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	libisccfg.so.1 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	liblwres.so.9 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	bind-libs = 31:9.3.4-8.P1.fc6 is needed by (installed) bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386

The libs are needed by the main program? Whooda thunk. Let's rip out BIND:

# rpm -e bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6
error: Failed dependencies:
	bind = 31:9.3.4-8.P1.fc6 is needed by (installed) caching-nameserver-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
	bind >= 9.2.2 is needed by (installed) turbopanel-dns-1.4.2-20080523.0816.noarch

We hate turbopanel. We usually rip this out too when we see it. Be careful, of course, if you are using turbopanel. Let's get rid of this as well as the the caching server:

# rpm -e caching-nameserver-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6.i386
# rpm -e turbopanel-dns-1.4.2-20080523.0816.noarch
error: Failed dependencies:
	turbopanel-dns = 1.4.2-20080523.0816 is needed by (installed) 
             turbopanel-1.4.2-20080523.0816.noarch

Almost there. Have to do this stuff in order:

# rpm -e turbopanel-1.4.2-20080523.0816.noarch
# rpm -e turbopanel-dns-1.4.2-20080523.0816.noarch
# rpm -e bind-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6
# rpm -e bind-libs-9.3.4-8.P1.fc6

Besides getting rid of /etc/init.d/named and non-user-specific stuff in /var/named, removing the RPM will get rid of the SysV init links. We can put them back with chkconfig:

# chkconfig named on
# chkconfig --list | grep on
.
.
.
named          	0:off	1:off	2:on	3:on	4:on	5:on	6:off
.
