IMO, for many (majority?) it will be a drop-in replacement for yum.
Yes, that's the plan. There are some differences but they are all well
documented.
Is the plan to actually rename dnf to yum at that point?
1. Is there a yum compatibility test suite? It dnf is supposed to be a
drop-in replacement, not having one would seem grossly silly and should
be treated as "full stop show stopper".
2. If dnf is supposed to be a drop-in replacement, a more reasonable
approach but to force dnf upon all users by brute force, would be to
apply "alternatives".
If it is truly a
drop-in replacement, that seems like the less disruptive approach for users
(and scripts) everywhere.
Agreed. I regret, but so far, dnf I do not see much sense in dnf.
