There is still one thing I've noticed we're missing: API and CLI for
getting package changelogs[1]. This exists in yum but doesn't in dnf.
While I
agree that this is missing functionality, being honest I think
we should educate users to use updateinfo which is meant for users
while changelogs might be interested only for developers. Updateinfo is
coming from what is written in bodhi.
In addition, don't we still need yum in the repositories for mock to
target EL6 and EL7 for EPEL?
I don't think so, but better to ask developers of
mock.
