The 'yum' package and executable on Fedora is just a placeholder. /usr/bin/yum is just a symlink to dnf-3. There is no legacy yum code installed. The package and symlink just exists for people who are used to typing 'yum', or they use 3rd-party software that runs 'yum' instead of 'dnf'. You can remove the yum package, it won't change the way packages are managed on Fedora. It's just a helper package. -- Jonathan Billings <billings@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
