From my reading of the man page (I have bind-4.9.7-1 installed), you could:
*.info;daemon.warn;mail.none;news.none;authpriv.none /var/log/daemon
and I think that can be abbreviated to
*.info;daemon.warn;mail,news,authpriv.none /var/log/daemon
BTW, this would just discard any messages of level daemon.info and thus
avoid cluttering /var/log/messages. It still keeps warnings and error
messages in that logfile tho.
At least according to the man page, you can give wildcard stuff first and
general stuff later. Thus, daemon.warn will override *.info.
I've just tried this ... nothing obvious yet...
