Description Jan Synacek 2013-05-16 12:42:19 UTC
Description of problem:

Currently, dnf doesn't allow package specs when using the distro-sync command.

# dnf distro-sync <package>
distro-sync accepts no package specs.

It would be nice if it did, as that functionality is very useful.

Comment 1 Ales Kozumplik 2013-05-17 05:41:54 UTC
hello,

yes indeed this is missing and a part of the backlog. it is unfortunately not as straightforward as it might seem given we do a "global" distro-sync already.

Comment 3 Ales Kozumplik 2013-11-18 16:35:19 UTC
(to properly emulate what yum is doing, if we want to do that, we might need to use SOLVER_TARGETED when using the *_to() methods in hawkey with SOLVER_DISTUPGRADE)

Comment 4 Ales Kozumplik 2014-02-26 16:38:03 UTC
Moving to Jan. Jan, mls tells me this is supported in libsolv just like other jobs (update, install). Please take a look, it will require extending hawkey which should be done in a way consistent to the other commands.

Comment 5 Honza Silhan 2014-03-10 15:55:00 UTC
The feature is available in the upstream.
