Note this fails on other long package selections not only python3 2. dnf install `cat filename` 3. NOTE: Keeping selection size under about 400 packages seems to keep dnf happy. Actual results: Expected results: Should provide errors or conflicts (if any) or proceed to user verification of package selection. Additional info: See attachment for a test file used and the session output from dnf.
