More dnf annoyance

Hi,

F22, in short: first running "dnf --refresh upgrade" shows some new
packets. Then "dnf clean all" followed by "dnf --refresh upgrade"
shows the same packets to be updated, and *some more*.

Dnf hasn't been working properly since F22, while I had not a single
problem with yum ever. Still I have to use "dnf clean all" before
updating, just to be sure to get all available updates.

There are bug reports reporting the same behaviour, but no solution.
As far as I realise, there isn't a way to get yum back.

Any chance that Fedora gets a properly working packet manager in the
near future?
