We already played with this topic for DNF but that game was primary focused for RHEL and required by RHEL, therefore it was delivered to Fedora after many users already accepted DNF. If you type `man yum` you will get man pages for DNF with note that ` yum - redirecting to DNF Command Reference`. I think that this kind of approach can be used also for DNF5. You can also try `yum --help` and you will see `usage: yum [options] COMMAND`. Please all of those examples requires `yum` package installed. > > I understand that deprecation warning has their own issues, but if you > already put some thoughts into that topic, I'd like you to elaborate > more then just provide statements like above. DNF in early versions (1.1) provided a warning when `yum` was called. It was nice and transparent way how to send a message about redirection to DNF, but we got very strong negative feedback about that, therefore we removed it. I don't think we should repeat that approach. Personally I don't feel comfortable with education of our users using warnings, because they have value at first occurrence but then they are annoying. > > > Vít Jaroslav _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
