For quite random reasons, I was wondering what would happen if I
completely
removed yum, and only used dnf.
Is it possible to do that? or would it totally break the system?
Another question: why keep two package managers, and not switch to dnf and
just keep dnf?
On a fresh install of F34 Server I see this:
# LANG=C dnf list installed \*yum\*
Installed Packages
yum.noarch 4.7.0-1.fc34 @updates
# rpm -ql yum
/usr/bin/yum
/usr/share/man/man8/yum.8.gz
# ls -l /usr/bin/yum
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 5 13. Mai 16:35 /usr/bin/yum -> dnf-3*
So, there's pretty little "yummy" stuff there. And what is there is not
much more than a pointer to dnf.
It seems, the switch to dnf you asked about has basically already happened.
