dnf?
Hi All, FC22 had replaced yum with dnf. Same command syntax. I have used dnf on fc22 and rather like it. Will we be seeing it in a future SL7.x release? -T
Re: dnf?
Rhel won't change package management tools mid release, and they shouldn't. Rhel 8 will likely use dnf.

If it were to be included in a future SL7 release, though, you would see it in the North American Upstream Vendor release notes for their release (i.e., you'd see it in the RHEL 7.x release notes, and then you'd know that SL 7.x would get it as a derivative of RHEL). Hope that helps, Jim
Re: perf command in SL
Hi Mahmood, It is certainly there on my SL 6.5 machines, and it does look as if it was there in SL 6.3: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.3/x86_64/updates/security/perf-2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64.rpm What makes you think it is not there?
