OK.... I read FAQ.....

And the one following it.... "Is it possible to force DNF to get the
latest metadata on dnf upgrade?"
Running KDE and the notifications in the systray showed there are 12
updates available. Figured I give dnf a try, which I've done from
time to time, but it showed no packages to update. OK....so clean
metadata for both yum and dnf....
ran both "yum check-update" and "dnf check-update".
yum listed the 12
And dnf offered nothing...
Is this just a case of whatever generates the metadata that yum uses,
and whatever else generates the metadata that dnf uses, do their
generation at different times? Or do they actually have a different set
of package files to look through?
I can't help but wonder what changing from yum to dnf will do for mirror
sites. Are we going to see a prolonged period where various mirrors
stagnate?
Right....
But, now it does.... I thought "clean metadata" would have done it.... But, clean expire-cache seems to have done the trick.
Can Yum cache updates and DNF cache updates interfere with each other?
Since installing DNF I randomly get out of space conditions on cache
updates which I have queried in another thread. I don't understand why
this occurs when the file I think it is trying to update is 25 GB in
size and there is 695 GB free space in the partition where the cache is.
Have you experienced this sort of thing, or should I be raising a bug
report (the issue with a bug report is at the moment I'm not sure if it
is DNF or Yum producing the error message, and, if it is Yum, given that
DNF is replacing Yum in Fedora 22 is anybody going to care anyway?).
