NAME

6       dnf-transaction-json - DNF Stored Transaction JSON
7
8       The  stored transaction format is considered unstable and may change in
9       an incompatible way at any time. It will work if the  same  version  of
10       dnf  is  used  to  store  and replay (or between versions as long as it
11       stays the same).

24              backwards  compatibility  (old dnf can work with new transaction
25              JSON).
