+1 for reverting this
Currently dnf-yum package provide /usr/bin/yum to force users to redirect to
dnf.
But unfortunately dnf doesn't find a local repo path, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1205341 .
I use a local repo to test all my packages in f22 VMs.
Shure, i can install packages by hand, but i have a lot of them and this slow
down my daily work.
In addition of missing plugins (ie. version-lock) dnf isn't usable for me in
this early stage.
I fixed that with downgrading/locking yum to last working release.
In my opinion fedora should not force users to use dnf if so much things
aren't working, currently.
Hi, please, see my comment in the bug. It turned out that librepo doesn't handle
'file:/path'-like (note the missing double slash) URLs. As a workaround, you can
convert it to a 'file:///path'-like URL. If further discussion is needed,
let's discuss it here:
