Red Hat Pushing DNF 5 Into Development For Improving The Package Manager

Just having some fun, I did some small tests of installation times for larger transactions in containers (ArchLinux from Docker, UBI 8 from Red Hat). The times include repo caching, downloading, and installing. "--allowerasing" was needed to get over a coreutils vs coreutils-single conflict with the UBI container.
Code:Pacman: $ time pacman -Syu xorg xorg-server gnome # 645 packages, 550MB download, 2.4GB installed real 9m14.225s user 0m44.394s sys 0m15.765s DNF: $ time dnf -y groups install "GNOME" # 787 packages, 545M download, 1.7GB installed real 4m57.101s user 1m19.233s sys 0m13.963s $ time dnf -y groups install Core Fonts GNOME "Hardware Support" base-x --allowerasing # 973 packages, 898MB download, 1.8GB installed real 7m29.249s user 2m2.126s sys 0m19.186s $ time dnf -y groups install "Server with GUI" --allowerasing # 1163 packages, 1.1G download, 2.5GB installed real 10m50.XXXs # forgot to copy paste the result before doing a history command, lost scrollback
Cheers,
Mike

FWIW, I typically just use aliases instead of tab completion for frequently used ops. Here is my config for your reference
Code:/etc/dnf/aliases.d/USER.conf [main] enabled = True [aliases] in = install ri = reinstall rm = remove mc = makecache up = update dsync = distro-sync dg = downgrade sh = shell se = search

You don't need more bureaucracy and policy making, you just need to stop closing useful bug reports for no reason.
**no-response cricket noises**
**Issue gets closed**
That seems like a decent reason to close an issue out to me.Last edited by tildearrow; 08 March 2020, 03:58 PM.
