Fedora 26 and Fedora 27

$ dnfdragora --version

$ dnf info dnfdragora|grep -e Version -e Release

Release      : 9.git20180108.b0e8a66.fc26

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Wait till updates are available in the repositories
2. Start dnfdragora
3. Select a package
4. Click on Changelog
5. Recognise "Missing Information" instead of package changelog

Comment 2 Woi 2018-02-14 17:25:37 UTC
As explained upstream:
package changelog is not (yet) supported by dnf. I confused this with update information, which dnfdragora is able to show.
I'm still looking for a good explanation about the differences, but at least this is not a bug of dnfdragora -> close
