I've been using DNF pretty regularly since upgrading to F20 and so far I'm not sure I see any real big difference between them. Although, I may not be supposed to see a difference.
The one thing I have noticed is that DNF quite often shows no updates available and YUM does. For instance today, on two F20 systems (one at home and the other the system I'm on now) dnf update said there were no updates but yum had 20+ on both.
I'm curious, why is there such a big discrepancy? Aren't they both using the same repositories? Is it an architectural change that causes that? I know it's still in testing mode, but I would think the output would be nearly the same.
What gives?
