Sadly using rich dependency will break 3rd party package manegement as well as yum (which is still commonly used - as long as dnf won't catch up with missing stuff).

I just opened a report for glibc in advance. Wrote a few more lines about the woes we have with rich dependency.

All right, the 'or' part is intended just as a safety net to select a default plugin, so it is not really needed.
