That's indeed very important. The most convenient method to test individual 
updates from testing, no matter how many packages are in the update group 
nor how many subpackages they have. (Despite the naming, it is not limited 
to security updates, by the way.)

Another one that also doesn't show up in the list is --downloadonly. It is 
needed to do safe distribution upgrades with minimal downtime (first 
download everything, then run the upgrade from cache in the text-only
multi-user.target).

Yeah it should obsolete yum and ship /usr/bin/yum (as a symlink or whatever)

Is the command still going to be called "yum"?

It appears from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF
that everyone will have to start writing "dnf install ...", which (if
true) invalidates a vast amount of existing documentation and scripts.

Save everybody some surprises in Fedora 22!

2014-06-06 Thread Ales Kozumplik

Hello,

The time when DNF will take over from Yum in Fedora is nearing. We're 
wondering: is there stuff people are still missing from DNF that they 
have got recently in Yum? Or even something else! We've put together a 
very short and simple survey. Let your opinion be heard!
