Description Gurenko Alex 2023-06-29 12:35:37 UTC 
Previously DNF had --refresh parameter that can invalidate cache during the update to get a just added packages. Right now the only way that I know if to run
`dnf clean expire-cache` before running the update to ensure you're getting latest packages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf upgrade --refresh
Actual Results:  
Unknown argument "--refresh" for command "upgrade"

Expected Results:  
dnf invalidates cache and then performs "fresh" upgrade

This was recently added into the upstream: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf5/issues/227. Will be delivered in the following dnf5 release.
