I don’t know about dnf, but pacman doesn’t do this by default. The only way to hold back packages is by writing it in the configuration.

dnf has a MUCH nicer interface than apt. Pacman is a completely different beast, but will basically just install anything you ask it no problems regardless of whether that will brick your device or not. I still don’t get why you need all that update && upgrade thing. How many users want to upgrade without resolving the repositories before that?
