Comment 18 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2017-02-21 12:04:39 UTC 
Just for completeness.
At least pdns-recursor complains during startup:

Feb 21 12:57:39 Hygiea pdns_recursor[31991]: PowerDNS Security Update Mandatory: Upgrade now, see https://doc.powerdns.com/3/security/powerdns-advisory-2016-02/

This is quite misleading. Wondering if this needs to be patched out somehow as it seems to be based on version checking.
