You are missing the relevant pdns backend package, which I believe is

Thanks. But now I'm completely hosed.
During installation I added a password (good) ... but eventually hit an error
indicating I already had a data base with a conflicting name. Now I'm trying
to undo/start over from scratch.
During installation of what? Did installing pdns-backend-mysql try to
install mysql as a dependency and remove mariadb??
Showing the actual error message you see, and relevant console logs, is
always helpful. Otherwise we're just guessing what you're doing.
You said you are using Ubuntu 16.04: but what version of pdns-server and
pdns-backend-mysql did you install? The best place to get powerdns
packages is from https://repo.powerdns.com/.
The ones in the OS repos are often way out of date (especially a
three-year-old OS). Specifically the version 4.0.0~alpha2 from Ubuntu
16.04 was broken in some important ways.

Brian.
