●● Fedora is Deprecating Yum

Posted in GNU/Linux, Red Hat at 3:35 am by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Wallpaper candidate for Fedora 20

Summary: Fedora 20 is coming and DNF is being introduced as a replacement for Yum

THE developer of Yum died a few months ago and Fedora is poised to replace Yum, introducing instead DNF, which is similar but still experimental [1]. Fedora 20 is already being prepared for release [2], despite some delays [3].

Fedora has a short support span, which is my main reason for no longer installing it. Keeping Fedora up to date has been possible using Yum and Red Hat is now trying to improve the update process of RHEL, which Techrights uses in CentOS form. █
