Well, OK, but when I just re-run 'dnf update' it updates firefox now:

Using metadata from Fri Apr  3 03:24:08 2015

Dependencies resolved.

This is a definition of craziness: you do the same thing twice and expect a different return. In the end, I can't say that it doesn't work but I have an uneasy feeling that I do not understand how an essential part of my system works.

The reason is that even if metadata of the "updates" repository have been refreshed, there is probably another repository with matadata from Fri Apr  3 03:24:08 2015 (it has probably longer expiration period). So, yes, I agree that this is confusing.

Do you have a better idea than printing the timestamp for each repository?
