we'll keep having dns+dhcp information in ldap, we'll be using ldap2zone to 
write out the bind configuration into files.

this is done by an cronjob running hourly and can also be triggered manually 
by running ldap2bind.

No, that shouldn't be needed. We just changed the recommends from "pdns" 
to "bind9 | pnds" so if your packages depend on pdns, all is good.
