Description Michal Jaegermann 2014-04-04 16:14:50 UTC
Description of problem:

'man dnf' says:

       --best Try the best available package versions in transactions.

Sorry, but what this is supposed to mean?  AFAIK this is a default operation mode for dnf (and yum) with a possible exception of a 'downgrade' command.  Nothing indicates that this may bring an additional information in case of broken dependencies (however miserly this information will be).

Comment 1 Ales Kozumplik 2014-04-07 06:17:46 UTC
Fixed on the master branch by a31aea2.
