DNF Update

Hello! :)

I am running Fedora 20 x86_64 with installed DNF 0.5.4 and DNF plugins.
Sometimes I compare the update process between YUM and DNF and almost everythime the result is that DNF just don't 'sees' the updates. One of the examples is shown in the applied screenshot.

The way dnf and yum update the metacache is diffent, yum checks for new metadata almost every time you run it, dnf does it on a schdule.

if you want the same way in dnf as yum, you can add the --refresh cmd option.

dnf update --refresh
