I have a local repo with packages I have either modified locally, or want to pin to older (less broken, for me) versions, set to a higher priority (lower priority value) so that the distro repos won't try to update them. The old news is "yum check-update" does the same filtering that "yum update" does, so shows the same list of updates. It also states how many packages got filtered and if I want to know more about them I can run the check-update with --disablerepo to get the full list. "dnf check-update" does not do the same filtering, so reports packages that "dnf update" would not update. Now I can re-learn to type "dnf update --assumeno" instead of "dnf check-update", though I preferred the old way... But I also use mate-applet-softupd to get a visible indication of when updates are available. This uses (I presume) "pkcon get-updates" or its equivalent in the background, which is now based on dnf/hawkey/libsolv and so behaves a bit like "dnf check-updates" rather than "yum check-updates". Actually "dnf check-updates" is worse: not only does it list packages I've pinned back, but it also lists multiple versions of them from both the main fedora repo and fedora-updates repo. "pkcon get-updates" at least lists only the latest available version, but it still reports packages uninstallable due to priority restrictions. This means that the software update icon will *always* be lit for me, which makes it pretty useless!
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
