1). Why is it producing the messages "Updating and loading
repositories:" and "Repositories loaded." with nothing between them
which means that it didn't do anything? This functionality is
independent of whether the command is issued under sudo or not.
There are probably various things it can do that don't produce any
individual progress status. Just a did this, did that, and this...
When you fire up dnf, it is going to load data, some of it will be
local, some of it may be fetched from the WWW.
If you want to look for differences. Purge your dnf cache, do a dnf
update (check for updates), watch what happens. Say no and abort. Do
another dnf update moments later, and see how it operates from cached
data (what progress info you see as it does its thing).
I'm just issuing this command to see if there are actually any updates
to be applied rather than having dnf upgrade tell me there is nothing to do.
What's the benefit of that? If there is something, then you'll just
have to run another command anyway.
