Yup, feel free to file a bug against that plasma package. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

As Tom mentioned, you can find out by trying to remove yum, or even better, by running "dnf repoquery --installed --whatrequires yum". at the moment yum is not installed on my machine and the result of dnf repoquery --installed --whatrequires yum is completely empty. This means that one of the packages that need to be updated has become dependent on yum, that sounds strange to me since yum is a sort of deprecated in fedora. In particular the new dependency to yum is in one of this packages: breeze-cursor-theme breeze-icon-theme kde-style-breeze libkworkspace5 plasma-breeze plasma-breeze-common plasma-workspace plasma-workspace-common plasma-workspace-drkonqi plasma-workspace-geolocation plasma-workspace-geolocation-libs plasma-workspace-libs sddm-breeze To me seems that plasma is getting dependent on yum, probably could be the case to fill a bug report.

Actually, thinking about this, you may want to omit the --installed option as the updated package is obviously not installed yet. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Or if something actually depend on them, you'll find out if you do a "dnf erase yum" and it wants to remove lots of other stuff as well. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Is this generating some conflicts with dnf or > breaking something on my fedora? The functionality of dnf replaces the functionality of yum. That doesn't mean the yum packages you have won't be updated. You can just remove them at your leisure. poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
