Description Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2016-12-12 16:21:20 UTC
Description of problem:
It's harder to find the right dnf man page than it should be. For example, if I want to look up dnf repoquery, I need to know that this is a plugin, and then use tab-completion to find the the man page name dnf.plugin.repoquery.

Please consider doing what git² does: provide the man pages dnf-<subcommand> for all dnf subcommands, so that 'man dnf <subcommand>' works. This is very convenient for users.

² also iproute, btrfstools, and a bunch of others.
