Fedora 39 may get new package manager |
 |
Next year we may see a version of Fedora with an upgraded package manager. The DNF package manager, which has often been crticised for its performance, will likely be replaced by DNF5. "The new DNF5 will provide a significant improvement in user experiences and performance. The replacement is the second step in upgrade of Fedora Software Management stack. Without the change there will be multiple software management tool (DNF5, old Microdnf, PackageKit, and DNF) based on different libraries (libdnf, libdnf5), providing a different behavior, and not sharing a history. We can also expect that DNF will have only limited support from upstream. The DNF5 development was announced on Fedora-Devel list in 2020." Details on the change can be found in the DNF5 proposal. |
