If you have enabled SELinux and the package uses selinux policy to restrict file access of named, I think named-chroot is not necessary. It just complicates the usage and maintenance. But I think packages of ISC do not have similar SELinux protection as Red Hat supported bind or bind9.16 packages. ISC packages to not offer chroot helpers either. You would have to prepare it yourself.

Hello and thank you for the reply.
I can confirm my current dns servers have already EPEL repo enabled and 
jemalloc package is available.
I'll setup my test machine accordingly to be able to install BIND 9.18. Will it 
also provide named-chroot (is it really necessary?)
Thanks!
David

Hi David,

Hello and thanks for the reply.
I enabled this repo in Oracle Linux 8 with: dnf copr enable isc/bind

Then  I tried to install (dnf install isc-bind) but I got:

BIND 9.18 and newer require jemalloc, but this package isn't part of Redhat 
base. You also need to enable the EPEL repository for this.
I think it is not required by all 9.18 builds. It is recommended, but can be omitted. It has to be configured at the build time however. configure --without-jemalloc is still supported. It is still possible to build even 9.18 without jemalloc.

With Oracle Linux, there are 2 different EPELs available. Oracle's own rebuild 
of EPEL packages, and the Fedora EPEL. My personal preference is the Fedora 
EPEL repo, which you can install with:

dnf -y install
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

Then you should be able to install the ISC BIND packages.

Anand
Interesting. I did not know Oracle rebuilds also EPEL packages. Are they also 100% compatible rebuilds like RHEL packages? Do they at least document how to contribute to EPEL anywhere?
