I removed yum on f24. How do I easily reinstall it?

Question

I removed yum on Fedora 24. How do I easily reinstall it?

I have tried reinstalling using rpm. First I cannot find the rpm previously used (dnf-yum-1.1.10-1.fc24.noarch) and the rpms I get a lot of dependencies and sub dependencies.

I removed yum because it was not working after I re-partitioned my OS using gparted

Fedora 24 does not need yum. You should use dnf.

In case you really need a yum, then install it with dnf:

sudo dnf install yum

I've already tried dnf and I get the error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates'. it seems there is something wrong with dnf as well. – yusha uzumo Feb 15 '17 at 12:22

That is different question and looks like some network problem. – Jakuje Feb 15 '17 at 12:23
I ran dnf install yum again and I get error: Segmentation fault (core dumped) – yusha uzumo Feb 15 '17 at 12:44
@yushauzumo Is yum the _only_ thing you removed? – mattdm Feb 15 '17 at 13:37
So this is what I remove dnf-yum-1.1.10-1.fc24.noarch.rpm as well as chrome and firefox. They were all kind of faulty. – yusha uzumo Feb 15 '17 at 17:25
