Delete branch "romain-dartigues/cdist:rd/almalinux"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Waiting for review and comments.

almalinux, notalma- since it is what upstream uses:I don't mind the boilerplate right now - you can open a separate issue if it bothers you.

I think some newer versions of redhat etc also only have dnf - no yum.
If anyone is interested, I can try confirm which versions.
DNF is the default package manager since RHEL 8, and RHEL 7 is EOL in month.
I'm a Fedora contributor - I know these things pretty well :-)
