Comment 2 Petr Sklenar 2016-07-25 14:04:06 UTC 
Its not user friendly. I am expecting similar usage like yum and yum installs such a packages.
Comment 3 Igor Gnatenko 2016-07-25 14:50:00 UTC 
It has been even implemented in yum, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1274211

definitely NOTABUG.
Comment 4 Honza Silhan 2016-07-25 15:33:32 UTC 
Good news for you is that strict=0 will be default behavior when you invoke `/usr/bin/yum` from `yum-dnf` with DNF backend.
