Description of problem: dnf debuginfo-install (as suggested by GDB) does not seem to work. (I have tested it only in Rawhide as provided by mock chroot.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python3-dnf-plugins-core-0.1.12-3.fc24.noarch How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: dnf debuginfo-install expat-2.1.0-12.fc23.x86_64 rpm -q expat-debuginfo Actual results: Last metadata expiration check performed 0:52:22 ago on Sun Oct 11 10:54:50 2015. Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. Complete! package expat-debuginfo is not installed Expected results: Installed: expat-debuginfo.x86_64 2.1.0-12.fc23 glibc-debuginfo.x86_64 2.22.90-8.fc24 glibc-debuginfo-common.x86_64 2.22.90-8.fc24 nss-softokn-debuginfo.x86_64 3.20.0-2.fc24 Complete! expat-debuginfo-2.1.0-12.fc23.x86_64 Additional info: Actual->Expected can be fixed by: /etc/dnf/dnf.conf [debug] name=Fedora Rawhide - x86_64 - Debug failovermethod=priority metalink=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=rawhide-debug&arch=$basearch enabled=0 -> enabled=1 Yum was enabling the debug repositories. If you do not agree then debug repos should be enabled by default. Or at least DNF should warn the user the debug repos are disabled.
I can see your debug repository has non-default name ([debug]). Debuginfo-install plugin tries to automatically enable *-debuginfo repositoritories for all enabled repositories. If the naming is other than default it has no clue which repos can contain debuginfo packages and should be enabled. With default repository naming plugin works as expected: # dnf debuginfo-install expat-2.1.0-12.fc23.x86_64 enabling updates-debuginfo repository enabling fedora-debuginfo repository enabling updates-testing-debuginfo repository Last metadata expiration check performed 0:01:54 ago on Mon Oct 12 11:06:49 2015.

This repo name had to be created by an older version of dnf. OK, if it works from fresh buildroots, thanks.
