Description
The domain join plugin uses the yum command to add prerequisites for RHEL, RHEL-like, and Fedora distributions, but DNF replaced YUM with RHEL 8 in 2019 and and Fedora 22 in 2015. While many installs include the yum command as a symlink to dnf, it's not guaranteed to be there. Considering all supported versions of these operating systems use DNF, the scripts should be updated to use DNF.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the domain join plugin scripts that add prerequisites for RHEL, RHEL-like, and Fedora distributions. Check the supported operating-system versions and update the prerequisite installation command from YUM to DNF; done means those scripts no longer depend on the yum command.
