fair warning if you are upgrading Recursor on FreeBSD via pkg upgrade: 5.0.7 -> 5.1.1

The FreeBSD powerdns-recursor package ships a default recursor.yml config file but does not convert the recursor.conf to recursor.yml

In our case this resulted in a broken recursor service because it tried to bind to a port that was not available.

The solution was to generate the yml file by converting the old config:

rec_control show-yaml path/to/recursor.conf > path/to/recursor.yml
mv recursor.conf recursor.conf.obsolete
