Created attachment 1312640 [details] dnf full log Description of problem: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 64, in main return _main(base, args, cli_class, option_parser_class) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 99, in _main return cli_run(cli, base) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/main.py", line 115, in cli_run cli.run() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/cli.py", line 1009, in run return self.command.run() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/commands/downgrade.py", line 55, in run strict=self.base.conf.strict) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/dnf/cli/cli.py", line 378, in downgradePkgs raise dnf.exceptions.Error(_('Nothing to do.'))
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle. Changing version to '27'.
The traceback in the log is expected as user expected package downgrade and DNF wasn't able to satisfy the requirement. The problem is probably in the error message "Nothing to do". We need to make the message more descriptive so it's clear what's going on.
I created a patch that changed messages (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/917). But in the log there will be still tracebacks. We can hide it, users well be probably more happy, but if any problem appears we will be unable to track it and fix it.
