Description of problem: Fedora 22 is planning to switch over to dnf from yum as per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF Please switch from yum/yum-utils to dnf/dnf-plugins-core. Thanks!
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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.

The plugin seems not to be compatible with dnf (no time/interest from my side to port it to dnf myself) and also has a dead upstream [1], I've marked it as retired, thanks! [1] https://github.com/crook/yum-axelget
The package remains available on EL7 as it's fully functional there, only Fedora related branches were retired.
It is not possible to retire form already released Fedora versions. The latest package version will remain there forever.
