#dnf5 — Public Fediverse posts

Looks like we're waiting on dnf5 v5.4.2.1 rpm build to hit @fedora with the fix for dnf5daemon.

Not seeing it in Koji or Bodhi yet.
#Fedora44 #DNF5

There appears to be a bug in #Fedora 44 with malcontent-timerd service and dnf5daemon-server services not stopping properly at shutdown.

Is anyone else getting stuck with 5 minute shutdowns?

I think @fedora needs a patch to GNOME Software for enabling repos. I am not sure if this is a bug that's been covered yet?

GNOME Software -> Software Repositories currently directly edits repo files in /etc/yum.repos.d/ but the `dnf5 config-manager enable <repo-name>` command creates an override file under /etc/dnf/repo-overrides.d/ directory.

And if you use Software UI to disable a repo the override file is not removed.

Toggle "Test Updates" on
Toggle "Test Updates" off

Run dnf config-manager enable updates-testing
Run dnf config-manager disable updates-testing

Things quickly get out of sysc

GNOME Software can also get stuck in a loop trying to display the repo list if it loses track.

#OpenSource developers, we are looking for speakers for #DevConf_CZ 2026! 🐧

One of the highlights this year will be the evolution of #Linux operating systems. If you have insights on #CentOS, #Fedora, #Silverblue, or advancements in #Kernel development and #Edge computing, we invite you to submit your proposals: https://pretalx.devconf.info/devconf-cz-2026/cfp

I think a lot of people in #fedora overlooked how long ago we (#ultramarinelinux and #terrapkg) first adopted #dnf5.
Fyra has adopted dnf5 since the end of 2023, and we have discovered and resolved quite a variety of issues with it, big and small.

What a journey.

If you’re having trouble updating with Terra, there is a reason

Terra Advisory

Latest release of dnf5 (5.2.14.0) has introduced a new regression that might cause Terra to not load correctly.

If you are having this exact issue, downgrade dnf5 using:

sudo dnf5 downgrade dnf5

TIL that #DNF5 have added the option to offline update with direct power off.
Before dnf5 one had to wait for the offline upgrade to happen and then power their system off.

Last week I finally sit down and tested new feature in #DNF5 Actions Plugin I asked for and using it implemented integration between DNF5 and #etckeeper . It turned out to be easy, it's a single 2 line config file. Happily using it now on my #Fedora42 machine.

Terra users:
if you are having issues with dnf5 failing to load signing keys, please downgrade dnf5 (dnf downgrade dnf5 -y).

The issue is documented here: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf5/issues/2134

Attention opensource #OS developers, this one's for you!

Got something to say about #Linux-based operating systems? #DevConf_CZ is looking for speakers to share insights on @fedora Linux, @centos Stream, RHEL, CoreOS and Silverblue, or maybe new technologies and features such as bootc, immutable systems, dnf5, Konflux, edge, and automotive.

Just updated one of my Ultramarine Linux 41 installs, and I gotta say, DNF5 is looking pretty sweet. VERY informative.

The output of this command in #dnf5 is way longer than it used to be in the previous version:

dnf --refresh updateinfo info | less

Who knows a way to get only the description of the updates, without the long list of Packages that fills the output?

@fedora @centos @almalinux @rockylinux Great thing is F41 finally stopped blocking #dnssec validators. We had validation of gpg keys in dnf3. It finally works in default installation, but is not in #dnf5 anymore.

Yay 95%!!! It looks like I'm about to finish the German translation of #DNF5 in an few days! 🥳

Since additional pairs of eyes are always better:
- Are you fluent in German and wondering how you could contribute to @fedora :fedora:? Go ahead and join our team of translators. I would love to see your suggestions and fixes! 💙
