  For releases I expect it to be functional. I use rawhide for several years
already, so I am used to stuff breaking.

  The problem is that fedora-review and/or mock were broken for more
than two months, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1208912
so I was using -o--yum.

  I had also switched back to yum in rawhide due to --skip-broken, and
in a few updates not even needing it (I would first see what is broken,
and if not something "vital", use --skip-broken), while dnf would just fail
with cryptic messages. I can keep up if kde or gnome is broken, or
some other stuff that does not prevent boot and a functional system.
