Did the trick perfectly. Only have 2 stable 5.6 kernels now.
Great!
What is the difference between dnf and rpm ? When do I use dnf over
rpm and vice versa ? Shouldn't DNF be able to do everything that rpm
does ?
What is reason for the existence of both ?
rpm is the main database of packages on the system. dnf sits on top of
rpm and provides more functionality and ease of use, as well as more
protection from making errors.
More specifically, dnf uses rpm for the actual package management
operations. dnf provides the dependency resolving and package downloading.
