I wonder how many shell scripts there are "out there" that folks
have written or accumulated over the years and which now need to be
updated before deprecated becomes no longer available? Or, like
With the case of DNF and Yum, the RHEL team put in considerable work into
making sure that the new DNF-based 'yum' command is a drop-in replacement
for the vast majority of those scripts.
They did so well, that I didn't even notice anything changed - no
complaints from my "automated" update facility. I only learned about
this change from "diff {RedHat} 8 7" document.
This reminds me what I used to say about my sysadmin job: My job is like
that of a plumber: if I do it right, no one will notice that I exist; if
I do it wrong, everybody gets ... you know what.
Well done, RedHat!
