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.
