Description Jerry James 2015-03-06 17:44:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
I'm trying to port some yum-based scripts I use over to dnf and stumbled across the lack of --pkgnarrow support in dnf's version of repoquery.  Please consider adding this.  For example, I use this when I want to search through packages I don't have installed for a particular capability.

The --archlist argument (instead of the existing --arch) is also useful.  That lets me combine searches for, say, x86_64 and noarch packages together without needing to see results for multiarch (i686) packages.

By the way, I'll sneak a tiny typo note in here.  The package description starts with "Core Plugins for DNF. This package enhance DNF with builddep, copr,".  That should be "enhances", not "enhance".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dnf-plugins-core-0.1.5-1.fc22.noarch
python3-dnf-plugins-core-0.1.5-1.fc22.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. This works: repoquery --pkgnarrow=available --archlist=x86_64,noarch '*'
2. This doesn't: dnf repoquery --pkgnarrow=available --arch=x86_64,noarch

Actual results:
Error: unrecognized arguments: --pkgnarrow=available
Also, if the --pkgnarrow argument is omitted, dnf treats the string "x86_64,noarch" as an arch, and hence produces an empty list.  This means that separate queries for x86_64 and noarch are necessary.

Expected results:
Comparable results to the yum-based repoquery's output.

Thanks for the report. I would prefer to extend `--arch` to accept more than one architecture than implement new switch.
Comment 2 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2015-05-21 09:01:12 UTC 
Any thoughts on --pkgnarrow?  I found a piece of code that needed it today so that I could run separate queries for installed packages (simulated with raw rpm instead), updates (why I needed pkgnarrow), and anything available.
Comment 3 Honza Silhan 2015-07-14 09:58:24 UTC 
Toshio, it's not implemented yet. `--pkgnarrow` switch name seems to me strange. `--updates`, `--installed`, etc. mutually exclusive options would fit better with `dnf list` command.
Comment 4 Honza Silhan 2015-07-21 09:44:57 UTC 
* The archlist part is tracked in bug 1186381
