Only once has this produced an update for me:
[root@box10 bobg]# dnf update
Resolving dependencies
--> Starting dependency resolution
--> Finished dependency resolution
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
But yum update a moment later:

Is this ok [y/d/N]: y
And it went through to complete this morning's update.
What is wrong? DNF man page shows an update command ,,,

Hey Bob,
that's expected:

Ales
That seems counterproductive. If there are updates to be had then dnf needs to
find them and apply them. Blaming metadata timing
to result in no updates is a dodge and needs to be corrected. If not seeing
available updates is not considered "a real update
problem" then what is? Yet another place where dnf will need to improve before
becoming a yum replacement.
You can get similar "inconsistency" with just yum on two different
computers sitting under your desk because they are on different metadata
expiry timer, and can also end up using different mirrors.
