The reason of skipping some packages can be seen in when you execute `dnf update --best`. To force the update of all packages with conflicts with possible removal of some packages: `dnf update --best --allowerasing`. We are working on the notification to the user (see bug 1210445). `check-update` command lists all available packages of higher version than installed ones - not all that could be updated altogether.

Ok, some packages seems to be blocked by sonamebump in libvpx, since this seems to work:

$ sudo dnf update firefox --best --allowerasing

Is this ok [y/N]: 


But anyway, this behavior is very surprising, since it means my system, although seemingly updated contains old versions of some package. The "dnf update" should definitely report the package which has available newer versions, but can't be installed.
