Interesting. I did a dnf whatprovides /var/lib/dnf/yumdb
and it came up with the dnf-data..
It is installed on all 4 machines, but 3 don't have the
yumdb directory??
Perhaps it is created during the transistion of a system
that was using yum to dnf, so it is only created at that
point??
I don't know, but I'd be surprised if the content of a package
depended on the way the system was installed. Just out of curiosity,
what does
rpm -V dnf-data
say? Does it signal that /var/lib/dnf/yumdb directory is missing?
FWIW I get this:
[simon@localhost ~]$ rpm -V dnf-data
.M....... g /var/lib/dnf/groups.json
.M....... g /var/lib/dnf/history
.M....... g /var/log/hawkey.log
