YUM version 3 has been removed
As of this release, the YUM 3 package management stack has been removed, including the following packages:
-
createrepo
-
yum
-
yum-langpacks
-
yum-utils
-
yum-metadata-parser
-
yum-updatesd
The purpose of this change is to minimize the disruption to users as the YUM 3 user experience transitions to use the more advanced DNF technology. We encourage anyone to open a Bugzilla ticket to inform us of any critical user experience or plugin problems that were missed.
We expect no impact on users as the package management functionality is already provided by DNF.
The DNF package manager provides equivalent packages createrepo_c
and dnf-utils
to obsolete createrepo
and yum-utils
.
Important executable files such /usr/bin/yum
, /usr/bin/repoquery
or /usr/bin/createrepo
will be provided either as new executable files or symbolic links to the respective DNF-based counterparts.

Gawk 5.0.1
The gawk
package has been updated to version 5.0.1, which is the latest upstream major release. Apart from fixing a number of bugs, the new version provides the following notable changes:
-
The regex routines have been replaced with those from GNULIB
-
Comment handling in the pretty-printer has been reworked almost completely from scratch. As a result, comments in many corner cases that were previously lost are now included in the formatted output.
-
Namespaces have been added.
-
Gawk now uses the locale settings for ignoring case in single byte locales, instead of hardwiring in Latin-1.
For more information about this release, see the upstream NEWS document. For information about the newly introduced namespaces, see the manual.
