    Please compile dnf for AIX.  dnf is the replacement for yum or yum v4.

    I'll second that.  Yum appears to require python 2; while DNF uses python 3.  Python 2 is close to end of life, we can reliably expect security patches in the future.

    It would take sometime to make this available as some testing and approval needs to complete.
