I'm sorry but "clean all" is not necessary at all! "clean metadata" or "clean expire-cache" should be sufficient.
Ok.
That said, I sometimes do not understand what's the harm in getting updates few hours later. dnf already tells you how old the metadata is when it starts, you can choose to get the latest metadata if it is too old. So what's the big deal?
I usually update weekly (or at least once within two weeks). And since F22, I get "nothing to do" every time I do this - although there are updates waiting. Which is.. annoying. So every time I have to clean the cache to be able to update.
This was at least not how yum behaved. But if it's intended behaviour now, well...
I update every day, and most days there are some changes. I never clean the cache. I also never use anything except dnf.
