So I've gathered now that I can get 3.4.2 from https://www.monshouwer.eu/download/3rd_party/pdns/el6/ for my CentOS 6 machine, https://www.monshouwer.eu/download/3rd_party/pdns/el7/ fro my CentOS 7 machine, and http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/dns/SLE_12/ for my OpenSUSE 12 machine (or update to OpenSUSE 13 and use http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/dns/openSUSE_13.2/).
But the problem that doesn't solve is my impending need to install the PDNS 3.5 release candidate when it's available. I gather there will be RPMs available, but I doubt I'll be able to get it on any of these repos. Is there anyone who can answer my original 3 questions (below) about this? > - Since I won't have auto dependency management, what dependencies do I need > installed to install PDNS from RPM? > > - Does pdns-static-3.4.2-1.x86_64.rpm _just_ install the binaries, or does it > install the service, too, so that I can call `service pdns start` and > configure the service to start automatically on boot?

It scares me, but if it would make the upgrade easier... I don't like the idea of going without security updates.
