Depends on which part.

You can use dnf repoquery to list duplicates, leaf packages (now
"unneeded", which I don't think is an improvement in clarity, but
whatever), orphans ("extras", and ditto), unsatisfied deps (formerly
"problems", now "unsatisfied" — that one is an improvement).

The cleandupes functionality is now "dnf remove --duplicates".

That's good to know.  Somehow, upgrades seem to hang on this system
(but not my laptop) leaving me unable to start a GUI, and with so
many dupes that I'd have to get a list of them (package-cleanup
--dupes | grep
fcXX> dupes.txt with XX representing the older disty because it
fcXX> listed
both sets) and then clean them up a few at a time by hand.  Not the
most pleasant task, but doable as long as I've got a simple way to
get that list.

FYI, If you are looking for a particular dnf command that does something
yum used to do the first place to look is 'man yum2dnf'
(or https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cli_vs_yum.html )

While we're at it:

No idea, what "dnf repoquery --unneeded" does, but it by no means is an equivalent to "package-cleanup --leaves":

# package-cleanup --leaves | wc -l
...
40

# dnf repoquery --unneeded
[nothing]

It's one of the reasons I still have package-cleanup installed.
