Description Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2015-05-31 17:51:55 UTC
Description of problem:
Might be PEBKAC, but it seems that dnf repoquery cannot be used to look for files in a certain directory.

$ dnf repoquery -f /etc/udev/rules.d/\*
(nada)
$ repoquery -f /etc/udev/rules.d/\*
(42 packages listed)

For me this is one of the most common uses of repoquery. E.g. https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/615#comment:43.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dnf-1.0.0-1.fc23.noarch
yum-utils-1.1.31-505.fc23.noarch
yum-3.4.3-506.fc23.noarch

Comment 1 Sergio Basto 2015-06-18 21:05:45 UTC
dnf repoquery doesn't  support also muti args 

dnf repoquery python-bottle-sqlite python-sqlite3dbm

Error: unrecognized arguments: python-sqlite3dbm

repoquery python-bottle-sqlite python-sqlite3dbm 
python-bottle-sqlite-0:0.1-4.fc21.noarch

Different issue, different bug, please.

Comment 3 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2015-06-19 12:39:29 UTC
Second bug for second issue.

Comment 4 Jan Kurik 2015-07-15 14:05:09 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 5 Sergio Basto 2015-07-15 23:43:51 UTC
 wildcards also fails with --whatrequires 

dnf repoquery --whatrequires pyorbit\*
none 

repoquery --whatrequires pyorbit\*
at-spi-python-0:1.32.0-14.fc21.x86_64
gnome-python2-bonobo-0:2.28.1-15.fc21.x86_64

Comment 6 Honza Silhan 2015-07-24 09:25:16 UTC
Thanks for the report, we'll take a look. `dnf whatprovides <glob-in-filename>` should work - use it as temporary workaround.

Comment 7 Radek Holy 2015-07-24 09:30:29 UTC
Rather "dnf provides". "whatprovides" is an undocumented alias. And it still work only for globs in file names, not in (virtual) provides.

Comment 8 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2015-07-24 13:17:09 UTC
Indeed, that works, and even gives the same results as plain repoquery.

Please, could you exemplify with pyorbit\* ? I don't understood  what you wrote .

man repoquery  (the old repoquery) , --provides and --requires are PACKAGE QUERY OPTIONS when --whatprovides and --whatrequires are PACKAGE SELECTION OPTIONS

Comment 10 Radek Holy 2015-07-24 14:01:37 UTC
Sergio,

I meant that as the workaround, Zbigniew should use e.g. `dnf provides /etc/udev/rules.d/\*` rather than `dnf whatprovides /etc/udev/rules.d/\*` since both are the same but the latter one is not documented.

And then I meant that `dnf provides /etc/udev/rules.d/\*` works as expected but OTOH it still cannot help you, Sergio, because `dnf provides pyorbit\*` does not work either. We have no workaround for you since both commands ("repoquery" and "provides") are broken in this regard. They cannot find provides specified by a glob expression, only files.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
