if you think it's dangerous don't use it! but it's not a reason! and since many of us use it since many years we still wanna use it. and if dnf has not as feature rich as yum + yum-utils + yum-cron then probably it's not a 'replacement' for yum. and those who prefer dnf in stead of yum still can replace it. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!" -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
