Hi,

Do you still have some critical missing functionality in DNF? And let
us know reasons why would you like to keep YUM available (hopefully
there are no)!
I've not tried 'dnf  remove --duplicates' yet, but if it behaves similar to 'dnf  remove --assumeno $(dnf -C repoquery --duplicated --latest-limit -1 -q)', then there is still no 'sane' way to remove duplicated packages, which might be needed if 'dnf upgrade' is terminated half-way. There is also a RFE at [1] for such scenarios, but it would be enough is 'dnf remove --duplicates' doesn't try to remove other packages as dependencies of duplicated packages, or even better, if 'dnf upgrade' is able to 'sanely' continue a terminated 'dnf upgrade' operation instead of complaining about conflicts and being unable to proceed. Currently, the user must know that the problem is duplicated packages, and learn how to safely remove them without removing other required stuff.
