<p dir="ltr">Dnf is a substantial upgrade/rewrite to yum. Can't recall what the acronym is for.</p>

<br>
1. Why did Fedora/Red Hat decide to change yum to dnf? I am used to seeing<br>
"dnf" in the agate results of a car race, where it means "Did Not Finish."<br>
<br>
2. After installing or updating a package I always run yum (now dnf) clean<br>
all. On this new Fedora 24 install the routine always returns "52 files<br>
removed." It seems really odd to me that regardless of how much or how little<br>
has been downloaded and installed, <clean all> always removes the same number<br>
of files. Any clues on what might actually be going on here?<br>
