Can't add CNAME record pointing to other domain using powerdns provider

[fabiorauber]

When trying to add a CNAME record to domain foo.com, pointing to server.bar.com using lexicon powerdns provider, the CNAME record gets added with content server.bar.com.foo.com, even when the content variable contains the trailing dot.

I believe the culprit is

lexicon/lexicon/providers/powerdns.py

Line 154 in 65b09e9

content = self._fqdn_name(content)

lexicon/lexicon/providers/base.py

Line 202 in 65b09e9

def _fqdn_name(self, record_name: str) -> str:

    def _fqdn_name(self, record_name: str) -> str:
        # strip trailing period from fqdn if present
        record_name = record_name.rstrip(".")
        # check if the record_name is fully specified
        if not record_name.endswith(self.domain):
            record_name = f"{record_name}.{self.domain}"
        return f"{record_name}."  # return the fqdn name
