I posted this to another bug report, but I didn't realise that it was closed as a dupe of this. Sorry for the cross posting: For some reason DNF attempts to connect at high ports (instead of FTP/HTTP) and I see a SYN_SENT which is being blocked by our network's firewall, so it just stalls. Yum always seemed to work fast and connect only on HTTP/FTP ports. Is there a way to force DNF to use ONLY http?
This bug will be solver on librepo side only (bug 1210325). No additional changes in dnf are needed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1210325 ***
