Hi,

I have a question about DNF https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/DNF

Are there any plans to replace yum with dnf in the future?

According to what is written here
https://github.com/akozumpl/dnf/wiki/Features-Considered-for-Dropping
history function will likely be dropped.

 From my POV history feature is very useful. Is there a plan to provide
history function in Fedora dnf if yum gets dropped?


Hi Michal,

Thanks for pointing this out. I considered history a candidate for
dropping because I didn't realize people had usecases for it. It is not
present in the early versions of DNF but I will make sure to put it back
in later.

Just to add my voice to the choir, I use it extensively and I suspect
many others in QA group too. It's extremely useful when trying to
determine exactly what update caused a given problem.

+1 - I too use the history function of yum quite a bit.



And it is an absolutely critical component for sysadmin-side of things. Being able to quickly search to see when/who/what messed with pkg X makes tracking down changes a lot simpler.
