But apparently plugins are not packaged there[1]. yum-utils.spec contains manual installation of them: mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_sysconfdir}/yum/pluginconf.d/ $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/yum-plugins/ mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_sysconfdir}/yum/post-actions cd plugins for plug in $plugins; do install -m 644 $plug/*.conf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_sysconfdir}/yum/pluginconf.d/ install -m 644 $plug/*.py $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/yum-plugins/ %{__python} -c "import compileall; %compileall.compile_dir('$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/yum-plugins', 1)" done `make install` doesn't include it. > > > does dnf have --downloadonly? > > Yes, it works slightly differently than in yum, but is good enough. > > maybe the yum Debian maintainers have plans of packaging dnf? So there are three ways of adding this feature: - include yum patch for --downloadonly option - package yum-utils plugins (probably each as separate sub-package) - package dnf [1] https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/yum-utils/filelist -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
