This is not true. 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!
