In the past, I used to modify /etc/sysconfig/named and add entries to the NAMED_CONF_INCLUDE_FILES setting, then run /usr/share/bind/createNamedConfInclude
to generate /etc/named.conf.include.
As of OpenSuSE 15.4, /usr/share/bind/createNamedConfInclude has become an empty file and NAMED_CONF_INCLUDE_FILES got removed and NAMED_INITIALIZE_SCRIPTS introduced.
So now I changed my playbooks to manually generate /etc/named.conf.include and include it form /etc/sysconfig/named.
Since I hardly perform these new installations, it took a few years for me to find out about this change. Upgrading existing systems somehow kept the generated file and included it.
Related links with quotes as it was hard to find out what changed and how to work around and I wasn’t the only one bump into issues:
