yumex-dnf is able to show package changelog, at least on Fedora 26 (there is no yumex-dnf any more on Fedora 27). See screenshots for details:

Sorry those pictures do not show the same thing. Yumex-dnf does not show changelog either. Upfate information is not changelog. To show that you can read here, note that is the fouth issue. Changelog is not available, that's why is missing, i can remove that view, but that code is hinerited by rpmdragora and urpmi had changelog instead.

Thanks for the lightning fast reply. OMG, did I really missed this "Update Information" in dnfdragora since Fedora 27 was released? I'll created an other screenshot for others, that might stumble across this.

Also I'm a bit confused about the differences between "changelog" and "update information" but couldn't find a good explanation. May I asked you for a link or hint?
