Oracle Linux 8 and 9: About DNF and Application Stream

The yum utility that is provided with Oracle Linux 8 and 9 is based on Dandified Yum (DNF). You can use dnf to install or upgrade RPM packages, while automatically handling package dependencies and requirements. The yum command that is provided with Oracle Linux 8 and 9 is a symbolic link to dnf and you can use the dnf command and all of its options similarly to how you used the yum command on previous releases of Oracle Linux.

DNF introduces the concepts of modules, streams and profiles to allow for the management of different versions of software applications within a single operating system release. To read more about this subject, see the documentation: Oracle® Linux: Managing Software in Oracle Linux
