The last thing we want is to cause confusion in the community. It may be very wise to wait and give the community more time to absorb dnf. I confess that it would be a learning curve for me to use this command: I could imagine the headaches it would bring others with much more pressing deadlines. my 2 cents,I don't understand what the learning curve is? It works exactly the same as yum. Typing 'dnf' instead of 'yum' is a learning curve? I'm confused. Dan Also at least yum stood for something - Yellowdog Updater, Modified - as opposed to being some nonsensical conglomeration of letters. The only thing I am aware of that dnf means is "did not finish". --
