This makes sense. Let me ask from another angle: does Fedora lose
anything from not using the current dnf history algorithm (apart from
the discontinuity when we switch)? Would it make sense to have that be
a configurable option where Fedora defaults to the dnf model and RHEL
defaults to the yum model or is it essentially a cosmetic difference?
To me, it's more a cosmetic difference and I don't think it deserves a configurable option for switching the behavior.
It is more important to unify the behavior, document it and cover with tests._______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/GGU7CFCTBGEVJOTD5TZFQTGS55P3NWUP/
