Try yum install zikula on a F20 machine. But my point is that in case yum does not find something, it continues on with the others after mentioning that that was not found. dnf just quit. Try: sudo yum install gvfs-obexftp festival gvfs-obexftp is no longer available and yum will note that and go on to install the other (festival). sudo dnf install gvfs-obexftp festival (and it does the same as yum). Correction: Actually, my complaint is no longer true. A recent update appears to have fixed this, So, I withdraw my objection. Now, if only it could handle delta rpms, I would be happy!

Re: dnf-yum observation - link corrected
I tried dnf. One major issue that I did not like is that I asked it to install a bunch of stuff, one of which was not available (in F20). That meant dnf would not install anything. Also it was not clear to me that it was using deltarpms. Of course, I did not look into all possibilities so there may be some setting that I needed to have. Other than these, it worked fine for me.

Eventually, this will be added, I am sure, as also the option to continue if it does not find a package (and is asked to install a bunch). Other than these two issues, I found dnf just fine as a substitute to yum.
