So I think F28/F29 would be best time for retiring YUM. Right now DNF
should be already stable and provide same capabilities (or documented
that something will not be supported).
Hopefully infrastructure / rel-eng folks will finally add support for
rich dependencies[0] which would mean that yum will not work in Fedora
anyway, so..
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)!
There is still one thing I've noticed we're missing: API and CLI for
getting package changelogs[1]. This exists in yum but doesn't in dnf.
In addition, don't we still need yum in the repositories for mock to
target EL6 and EL7 for EPEL?
