Hmmmmm. I screwed up pretty good. I will do this again.
I believe you've made mistakes in other areas.
I believe you've added files, with named stopped in (for example) /var/named/chroot/etc.
This is a normal running named-chroot system.
[root@f33g etc]# ll -i /etc/named.root.key /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key 486885 -rw-r--r--. 1 root named 686 Jun 3 22:47 /etc/named.root.key 486885 -rw-r--r--. 1 root named 686 Jun 3 22:47 /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key
Notice they have the sam inode. They are, the same file.
If I stop named-chroot then one sees this....
[root@f33g etc]# systemctl stop named-chroot
[root@f33g etc]# ll total 0 drwxr-x---. 1 root named 18 Jun 3 22:46 crypto-policies drwxr-x---. 1 root named 0 Jun 3 22:46 named drwxr-x---. 1 root named 22 Jun 3 22:46 pki
I then copy the named.root.key from /etc into that directory and modify it to contain a "test" line.
[root@f33g etc]# cp /etc/named.root.key . [root@f33g etc]# vi named.root.key [root@f33g etc]# grep -i test named.root.key # Test
And you can see these are not different files.
[root@f33g etc]# ll -i /etc/named.root.key /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key 486885 -rw-r--r--. 1 root named 686 Jun 3 22:47 /etc/named.root.key 570722 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 721 Jun 16 10:41 /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key
[root@f33g etc]# ll total 708 drwxr-x---. 1 root named 18 Jun 3 22:46 crypto-policies -rw-r--r--. 2 root root 761 Jan 26 10:35 localtime drwxr-x---. 1 root named 0 Jun 3 22:47 named -rw-r-----. 1 root named 2215 Jun 15 18:44 named.conf -rw-r-----. 1 root named 1029 Jun 3 22:47 named.rfc1912.zones -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 721 Jun 16 10:41 named.root.key drwxr-x---. 1 root named 22 Jun 3 22:46 pki -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 6568 Jun 23 2020 protocols -rw-r-----. 1 root named 100 Apr 21 11:00 rndc.key -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 692252 Jun 23 2020 services
But we still have
[root@f33g etc]# ll -i /etc/named.root.key /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key 486885 -rw-r--r--. 1 root named 686 Jun 3 22:47 /etc/named.root.key 570722 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 721 Jun 16 10:41 /var/named/chroot/etc/named.root.key
Bottom line. Unless one has a special reason for this they should not be adding files into /var/named/chroot/etc/. As they will not be superseded by files which are updated by the dnf operation. If you do manually add files, you should make a note of it and then if necessary manually fix those files to take into account the upgraded files from the rpm.
