Because (from what I understood, perhaps incorrectly) yum is going away in favor dnf, I was trying to get used to the latter. Because the former is so ingrained in me, I was trying to get rid of it from the system so that not having it available would force me to think and thus get used to dnf. So I try: dnf erase yum abrt x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 1.9 M abrt-addon-ccpp x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 275 k abrt-addon-kerneloops x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 74 k abrt-addon-pstoreoops x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 14 k abrt-addon-python x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 19 k abrt-addon-python3 x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 14 k abrt-addon-vmcore x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 40 k abrt-addon-xorg x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 17 k abrt-cli x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 0 abrt-libs x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 51 k abrt-plugin-bodhi x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 20 k abrt-python x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 57 k abrt-python3 x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 53 k abrt-retrace-client x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 105 k abrt-tui x86_64 2.3.0-3.fc21 @System 24 k anaconda-core x86_64 21.48.21-1.fc21 @System 7.7 M anaconda-gui x86_64 21.48.21-1.fc21 @System 1.2 M anaconda-tui x86_64 21.48.21-1.fc21 @System 373 k anaconda-yum-plugins noarch 1:1.0-10.fc20 @System 21 k createrepo noarch 0.10.3-3.fc21 @System 301 k fedup noarch 0.9.0-2.fc21 @System 253 k libreport x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 1.8 M libreport-anaconda x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 15 k libreport-cli x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 29 k libreport-fedora x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 40 k libreport-gtk x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 219 k libreport-plugin-bugzilla x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 147 k libreport-plugin-kerneloops x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 37 k libreport-plugin-logger x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 35 k libreport-plugin-reportuploader x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 71 k libreport-plugin-ureport x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 55 k libreport-python x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 94 k libreport-python3 x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 41 k libreport-web x86_64 2.3.0-5.fc21 @System 44 k livecd-tools x86_64 1:21.4-1.fc21 @System 144 k lorax x86_64 21.30-1.fc21 @System 440 k python-imgcreate x86_64 1:21.4-1.fc21 @System 282 k python-meh noarch 0.32-3.fc21 @System 251 k python-meh-gui noarch 0.32-3.fc21 @System 24 k yum noarch 3.4.3-153.fc21 @System 5.6 M yum-langpacks noarch 0.4.4-1.fc21 @System 66 k yum-plugin-fastestmirror noarch 1.1.31-27.fc21 @System 53 k yum-plugin-remove-with-leaves noarch 1.1.31-27.fc21 @System 26 k yum-utils noarch 1.1.31-27.fc21 @System 324 k Question: why do stuff like createrepo, fedup, livecd-tools, etc still depend on yum? Should they be made to depend on dnf now, in which case, should there be a bug report on this?
