The advantage of the current dnf upgrade method is that the upgrade happens
in a special mode with only the minimal necessary to run the upgrade
process and this minimized the conflict with running services and libraries
in memory on the unofficial process.  The upgrade tool ideally should warn
you about disk space issues and other conflicts *before* it does anything.
 use --best to find that out and --allowerasing to remove packages as
needed.
