Description of problem: Using --cacheonly has no effect. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-1.1.9-2.fc23.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf clean packages 2. dnf -C update Actual results: dnf downloads all packages Expected results: Previous versions of dnf and yum bailed out with an error when --cacheonly was used and packages were not present in the cache. Additional info:
DNF should act as yum even though I personally consider the current DNF behavior as feature. We can implement addition option for using the local cache for just metadata (current -C DNF behavior).
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle. Changing version to '26'.
I created a patch that should provide requested feature (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/885).
