Description Vendula Poncova 2022-12-14 12:02:08 UTC

Description of problem:

Anaconda should use the DNF5 API for the package installation since Fedora 39. Drop the dependency on the python3-dnf and libdnf packages and remove these packages from the installation environment.

Comment 1 Ben Cotton 2023-02-07 15:11:42 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 38 development cycle.
Changing version to 38.

Comment 2 Vendula Poncova 2023-07-14 09:08:19 UTC

Update: The current plan for Anaconda is to continue to use DNF4 in Fedora 39 and switch to DNF5 in Fedora 40.

Comment 3 Katerina Koukiou 2025-01-17 07:53:39 UTC

Update: The current plan for Anaconda is to continue to use DNF4 in Fedora 42 and switch to DNF5 in Fedora 43.

Comment 4 Martin Kolman 2025-01-17 11:20:32 UTC

As for the current status - we have verified a basic manual/interactive installation is working & the installed system boots. Now we are going over test results from the extensive kickstart based installer integration test suite, making sure there are no known regressions from how DNF 4 behaves.

Comment 5 Aoife Moloney 2025-02-26 12:52:59 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle.
