Although DNF is a tremendous improvement over YUM, what I'd like to have now is a real search system (because the existing search command is a joke) and also a nice way of seeing what are changes in the new updated versions. I was thinking of something like bolding the part of the version number that got changed so that we easily know if it's a small update or a major update.

Can't help ya on search, but for the changes...

dnf updateinfo info

That? (cant test that command on my system right now as im in the middle of a dnf update, but googling and man page says that should display the changelogs for the packages)

Is it possible to use DNF on Debian?
