PowerDNS has been updated from <literal>4.2.x</literal> to <literal>4.3.x</literal>. Please
+
be sure to review the <link xlink:href="https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/upgrading.html#x-to-4-3-0">Upgrade Notes</link>
+
provided by upstream before upgrading. Worth specifically noting is that the service now runs
+
entirely as a dedicated <literal>pdns</literal> user, instead of starting as <literal>root</literal>
+
and dropping privileges, as well as the default <literal>socket-dir</literal> location changing from
+
<literal>/var/lib/powerdns</literal> to <literal>/run/pdns</literal>.
