Found where I got them from from an old note of mine

But I can't seem to get the dnf command correct
# dnf config-manager add-repo
--from-repo=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/Fedora_41/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox.repo
Unknown argument "add-repo" for command "config-manager". Add "--help"
for more information about the arguments.
Now what am I doing wrong?
$ man dnf5-config-manager
...
addrepo [--id=REPO_ID] <--set=REPO_OPTION=VALUE>+ [--add-or-replace]
[--create-missing-dir] [--overwrite] [--save-filename=FILENAME]
Adds a new repository defined using user options.
Yep, or from directly above that in the man page:
addrepo --from-repofile=REPO_CONFIGURATION_FILE_URL
[--create-missing-dir] [--overwrite]
[--save-filename=FILENAME]
Adds a new repositories configuration file specified
by URL or local path.
The short answer to the OP's "what am I doing wrong?" is:
not reading the documentation, even when it suggests using
the --help option, which also succinctly shows that in dnf5:
* the command is addrepo, not add-repo
* the argument is --from-repofile, not --from-repo
There may be other differences that matter here as well, but
I didn't bother to dig any further.
About fifteen typos later
# dnf config-manager addrepo
--from-repofile=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/Fedora_41/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox.repo
https://download.opensuse.org/reposito 100% | 332.0 B/s | 325.0 B
| 00m01s
Thank you!
But the repo 's install would not work, so I directly downloaded
rpm's from. There were repos to install, but I just did the
direct download.
