Description Adam Williamson 2023-12-16 00:34:18 UTC 
This is a tracking bug for Change: DNF: Do not download filelists by default
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DNFConditionalFilelists

Change the DNF behavior to not download filelists by default. These metadata, which describe all the files contained within each package, are unnecessary in the majority of use cases. Additionally, these metadata files can be large in size, leading to a significant slowdown in the user experience.
