Description

DNF-2.0 is the next upcoming major version of DNF package manager. Unfortunately, it brings some incompatibilities with previous version of DNF (DNF-1) which were either needed to preserve compatibility with YUM CLI or where bigger redesigns were needed. A list of identified incompatible changes can be found here[1].This test case identifies how to test basic commands , plugins and third party software.

  • you can install DNF-2 from this COPR repo for testing
  • testing scenarios:
    • anaconda installation
    • upgrade from previous Fedora version
    • core functionality: install, upgrade, remove, repoquery
    • dnf-plugins: copr, system-upgrade, download
    • third party software: mock, yumex

How to test

  • Enable and install the copr repo. dnf:
 $ dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf-nightly
  • Install updates from enabled repo
 $ dnf update 
  • Install, upgrade and remove packages dnf:
$ sudo dnf [OPTION] foo
  • Update your system using the standard updater for your desktop or dnf:
$ sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
  • A list of all the commands are listed here[2]

Expected Results

  • Repo will enable and install without throwing any error
  • System will successfully upgrade to desired version
