To clarify the state of things a bit -- lorax is already using DNF (and
python3) so anything creating a boot.iso or a DVD based on the boot.iso
will use DNF to select the packages.

livecd-creator is still yum and python2 based. I have no plans to change
this, it's time for us to switch to using Anaconda via
livemedia-creator so that we can keep the installation logic in one
maintainable place.

rel-eng is still using livecd-creator for Fedora 23. Hopefully
livemedia-creator koji integration will be working for Fedora 24. In the
meantime you can still use livecd-creator.

Anaconda is using DNF by default and is also python3 for Fedora 23 so
any package based installations will use DNF.

livemedia-creator documentation is here:
https://rhinstaller.github.io/lorax/livemedia-creator.html

And I've written a blog post here:

​What keeps us from completing livemedia-creator Koji integration for Fedora 23? And what of the state of pungi?​
