sudo apt-get update install all update easily in Ubuntu. Is sudo dnf update similar to this in Fedora 25?
As apt-get update (or apt update), a dnf check-update updates the local repository cache.
The (general) dnf update equivalent in Debian/Ubuntu is a combination of apt update, apt upgrade and apt autoremove.
There is a nice comparison between the package management tools apt, yum, dnf and pkg.
dnf or yum is automatically updating the package lists when used ... for e.g. # dnf install package
About dnf update : Will update packages to the latest available version. Like apt-get upgrade will do.
From fedoraproject.org/wiki/:
Ubuntu command --- Fedora command
apt-get update --- dnf check-update You don't need to do this as dnf updates its cache automatically before performing transactions
apt-get upgrade --- dnf upgrade
apt-get install --- dnf install
apt-get remove --- dnf remove
apt-get purge --- N/A
apt-cache search --- dnf search
