So I think this isn't actually a bug. The error is correct: dnf wants you to tell it what to install. Basically, it tells you that yes, you can list an advisory. But you still need to tell it what packages in that advisory need to be installed. This is in contrast to how dnf update --advisory works; it will upgrade every package in the advisory by default. So in essence what dnf install --advisory does is apply an additional limit on the packages it will install. So you can safely do: dnf install --advisory=FEDORA-2018-b7b99fe852 \* And get just the package listed in that one advisory. So maybe the --advisory option used with install command should be better specified in dnf documentation under https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html#install-examples I create a patch (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1239) that adds example into documentation. dnf-plugins-core-4.0.0-1.fc29 dnf-4.0.4-1.fc29 libdnf-0.22.0-1.fc29 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 29. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-2789f6b6e7 dnf-4.0.4-1.fc29, dnf-plugins-core-4.0.0-1.fc29, libdnf-0.22.0-1.fc29 has been pushed to the Fedora 29 testing repository.

Accordingly to documentation, the --advisory option should work with dnf install: --advisory=<advisory>, --advisories=<advisory> Includes packages corresponding to the advisory ID, Eg. FEDORA-2201-123. Applicable for install, repoquery, updateinfo, and upgrade command. But trying to do so I get an error which I can't comprehend: # dnf install --advisory FEDORA-2018-11d9a003e1 dnf install: error: the following arguments are required: PACCHETTO See also https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/issues/2564
