Description Dennis Gilmore 2017-04-28 13:31:06 UTC
Description of problem:
after having some issues with an upgrade I have a bunch of dupes 

The process documented http://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html#repoquery-command-label fails claiming that the dnf query is invalid

it seems it is the -1 if i change it to a 1 I get the latest builds not the older ones

Comment 1 Jaroslav Mracek 2017-05-03 14:36:29 UTC
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"

Comment 2 Jaroslav Mracek 2017-05-03 15:05:12 UTC
I create a pull request that only describe work around, but not solve a problem. Unfortunately we cannot do more.

Comment 9 srakitnican 2017-07-03 10:39:29 UTC
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.

Comment 10 srakitnican 2017-07-03 13:23:13 UTC
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

Comment 11 srakitnican 2017-07-03 15:06:12 UTC
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>.
