SubjectPython 3: yum is dead, long live dnf!
Message-ID<555976c1$0$2804$c3e8da3$76491128@news.astraweb.com>
As part of Red Hat's move to Python 3, yum is officially deprecated and 
replaced by dnf:

http://dnf.baseurl.org/2015/05/11/yum-is-dead-long-live-dnf/

Quote:

    Yum would not survive the “Python 3 as default” Fedora 
    initiative meanwhile DNF is able to run on Python 2 and 
    Python 3.

I think if you resume the transaction, downloaded things are locally 
cached: aren't they?

Does Not Fail?

As an aside, from the signature of your message, I thought "In war, 
truth is the first casualty." was first said by Winston Churchill, not U 
Thant?

I prefer the White King's line. Alice commented that she should
perhaps be grateful for the truth, even though a lie might well have
been more persuasive; the King replies, "In war, truth first! There's
always time for lies later."

:-)

Computer programs, like art, are never finished, merely abandoned.

Except for TeX, of course, which upon Donald Knuth's death will be released
as version π and all remaining bugs declared to be features.
