DNF problems - maybe force ftp->http ?

[Martin Møller Skarbiniks Pedersen]

Hi,

  I am having big problems install new software and upgrading my current
F22 using DNF.
  Maybe I am wrong but I think that if I could force dnf to use http(s)
instead of ftp, then my
problems would be solved.

  Please advise.

Here is one example.

$ sudo dnf install AcetoneISO
