I understand that just at first look at wiki page and that because I used old yum Fedora. Explanation of the wiki are not very accurate and paragraphs with Fedora releases / dnf . Is very true that dnf to have new ways to change yum style in time. Because is an complex process versus repo I want to understand well what is come with dnf and what is maintain. Thank you.
