Description Valdis Kletnieks 2023-05-30 04:55:41 UTC

From the changelong:

* Thu May 25 2023 Jan Kolarik <jkolarik> - 4.16.0-1
- Update to 4.16.0
- Remove ownership of dnf.conf, protected.d, vars

/etc/dnf/dnf.conf got moved to /etc/dnf/dnf.conf - as a result, and the next time I ran dnf, it misbehaved because it no longer saw the cachedir= and exclude= values I had configured.  Fortunately, I noticed the issue and was able to abort at the "Is this ok [y/N]:" prompt.


Reproducible: Always
