Yup, IIRC there are (S)RPM for latest bind versios posted on this list.

Yeah. If you only need latest binary, ubuntu (plus it's ppa) is
probably a better choice, e.g
https://launchpad.net/~hauke/+archive/bind9

Then again, the OP only mentions open source apps, with no mention of
Oracle and such. So using latest ubuntu LTS is probably a better
choice in that case.
