Description Ian Pilcher 2022-10-13 20:35:39 UTC
The leaves and show-leaves DNF plugins (python3-dnf-plugin-leaves and python3-dnf-plugin-show-leaves Fedora RPMS) are valuable tools for system administrators who wish to carefully manage the installed package sets on their systems.

These packages are disabled in RHEL, and nothing really provides the same functionality.  And because they're part of the dnf-plugins-core SRPM then cannot be easily built in EPEL.
