"dnf remove yum dnf kernel" ruins your system yum don't allow that for good reasons that's unacepptable behavior and was refused to change dnf needs much more RAM currently while the feature page pretends it has a smaller footprint - so it's not ready or the feature page is a "would nice to be" not backed by the reality > FWIW using a CLI interface to automate things is imo the wrong > approach if there is an api that can be used instead (cleaner, less > hacky, more efficient, etc) (and yes this changes here too, because > the old API was really horrible but that's not the point) no idea what is your daily job, sysadmin obviously not shell scripts are the Unix way and overall more efficient just because you write tiny scripts for different tasks and plug them together - efficient is not only a matter of runtime measure
