This is weird. Software Updates on the Control Panel says that there are 39 updates available But when I run dnf update it says "Nothing to do". What gives?
IIRC the Software Updates widget does not use dnf to check for updates, therefore it's likely it has a different set of metadata at its disposal. As you figured out, cleaning the MD cache helps.
I'm getting a bit confused lately. How many package managers does Fedora have these days? IIRC, until a year or two back, it was the same backend (yum), but many front ends (yumex, all the packagekit based frontends for the different desktops). Did packagekit start doing the backend bits itself?
From your message I understand that there are at least two different
package managers, both are "Official" to some capacity. For cli users like myself, it's dnf, for gui users it's something packagekit based.
Am I mistaken?
