Sure, but that's not really a problem. We've had both available in parallel for quite a long time now. The situation Kevin describes (/usr/bin/dnf is dnf4, you can install dnf5 and get /usr/bin/dnf5 alongside it if you like) is what was the state in Rawhide for several months before we flipped it so dnf5 provided /usr/bin/dnf , and is still the state in F38. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @ad...@fosstodon.org https://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
