The problem here is with argparser. Value -1 is recognized as a option not a value. There are some workaround: 1. --latest-limit=-1 2. --latest-limit " -1"
I create a pull request that only describe work around, but not solve a problem. Unfortunately we cannot do more.

Seems that I had dnf-2.4.1-1.fc26 installed when the upgrade failed mentioned in bug #1467293, yet I still got the same error when trying to use -1 as an argument.
Definitely does not work for me, please retest and reopen this bug. $ rpm -q dnf dnf-plugins-core dnf-2.5.1-1.fc26.noarch dnf-plugins-core-2.1.1-1.fc26.noarch $ sudo dnf repoquery --duplicates --latest-limit -1 > /dev/null Command line error: argument --latest-limit: expected one argument
Sorry, didn't see it is not possible to fix this in current release. In a sense that is described in comment #2 it is fixed for me as well. --latest-limit <number> Limit the resulting set to <number> of latest packages for every package name and architecture. If <number> is negative skip <number> of latest packages. If negative number is used use syn‐ tax --latest-limit=<number>.
