It looks like value 1 is only giving this problem. I see in code https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/blob/master/dnf/yum/config.py#L757 which says minimum value allowed is 2. (In reply to Parag from comment #1) > It looks like value 1 is only giving this problem. I see in code > https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/blob/master/dnf/yum/config. > py#L757 which says minimum value allowed is 2. Thanks. However, I do not understand why 1 should not be allowed. The "kernel" package is marked as "installonly" by default. DNF also protects you from removing the currently running kernel. In the end it means, that you're not able to (easily) install another kernel because you cannot remove the current one and by installing another one, you'd exceed the limit. On the other hand, if the user removes kernel from the list of "installonly" packages, I don't see a reason why shouldn't we allow them to do what they want... This is just another protection measure inherited from YUM which may be moved into a plugin (like protected packages), if the reporter wants. Anyway, we should at least: - improve the message (e.g. by mentioning the allowed range) - print a warning if the value is "risky" - improve the documentation of the config option dnf-plugins-core-0.1.20-1.fc24 dnf-1.1.8-1.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-5dae5d2add dnf-1.1.8-1.fc23 dnf-plugins-core-0.1.20-1.fc23 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 23. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-ddeabfcfe6 dnf-1.1.8-1.fc24, dnf-plugins-core-0.1.20-1.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository.
