base.repo

According to `man dnf.conf`:
    priority
          integer

          The priority value of this repository, default is 99.  If  there is
          more  than one candidate package for a particular operation, the one
          from a repo with the lowest priority  value  is  picked, possibly
          despite being less convenient otherwise (e.g. by being a lower
          version).

Reproducer:

[root@dev-copr ~]# dnf repolist

    Last metadata expiration check: 0:01:55 ago on Wed 12 Jul 2017 10:46:00 AM
    repo id                              repo name                       status

    rhcopr-development-repository-fedora Copr repo for rhcopr-dev owned      12
    rhcopr-repository-fedora             Copr repo for rhcopr owned by p      2
    *updates                             Fedora 26 - x86_64 - Updates     1,792
    [root@dev-copr ~]# dnf repoquery -q copr-frontend
    copr-frontend-0:1.107-1.fc26.noarch
    copr-frontend-0:1.110.rhcopr-1.fc26.noarch
    copr-frontend-0:1.110.rhcopr-1.fc26.src
    copr-frontend-0:1.113-1.fc26.noarch
    [root@dev-copr ~]# dnf install copr-frontend

    Dependencies resolved.
    ===========================================================================
     Package                             Arch   Version          Repository
                                                                          Size
    ===========================================================================
    Installing:
     copr-frontend                       noarch 1.113-1.fc26     updates 3.2 M
    Installing dependencies:
     PyYAML                              x86_64 3.12-3.fc26      fedora  178
    ....

So dnf tries to install copr-frontend from 'updates', instead of installing that
package from 'rhcopr-repository-fedora' or
'rhcopr-development-repository-fedora' repositories (having priority=50).  See
the base.repo file attached.

This worked fine some time ago on F25.

Sounds like a real bug.

Comment 3 Pavel Stárek (CZ) 2017-08-19 17:48:43 UTC
Hi all,

I can confirm this bug. I have configured repos from Russian Fedora (RFremix) project, and I have their "fixes" repository set up to lowest priority (repo priority value set to 200 because I don't want replace original Fedora pkgs with pkgs from this repo), in my other repos I have set priority value to 20 and fedora-updates repo I have set to value 10 (this is the highest priority), but freetype package from RFremix Fixes is selected to update, which is not correct according to my priorities settings.
