One complaint I have is displaying of detailed dep-solving. To get the
old style yum output would be very useful. I can get some of it back
by adding -v to the cmd line but if a package adds a new dep for
example it just says "adding blah" as opposed to what package is
adding that requirement. Ultimately in builds we often need more
rather than less debug so the end user can debug issues themselves via
the logs that are output, without that we'll see quite a rise in
requests for build debugs.
