That's good to know. Somehow, upgrades seem to hang on this system
(but not my laptop) leaving me unable to start a GUI, and with so
many dupes that I'd have to get a list of them (package-cleanup
--dupes | grep
fcXX> dupes.txt with XX representing the older disty because it
fcXX> listed
both sets) and then clean them up a few at a time by hand. Not the
most pleasant task, but doable as long as I've got a simple way to
get that list.
FYI, If you are looking for a particular dnf command that does something
yum used to do the first place to look is 'man yum2dnf'
(or
