Hm, could it be due to 'kernel' missing here?

Apparently not:

"Moreover, the currently booted kernel package is always protected."

(from <http://rpm-software-management.github.io/dnf-plugins-core/protected_packages.html>)

So, still strange that it wants to remove my running kernel...

I also noted that "dnf erase kernel deletes all packages called kernel" is still on <http://dnf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cli_vs_yum.html> :)

On the same page it says "No --skip-broken". I have used this quite often when a single packages stops other packages from being updated. The example on the dnf vs. yum page, "There is no equivalent for yum --skip-broken update foo, as silently skipping foo in this case only amounts to masking an error contradicting the user request." is missing the point of the --skip-broken switch, in my opinion. Or will dnf install all updates except the one that is broken (in my use case)? (I have not tested dnf that much to have experienced this myself)
