6 dnf-debug - DNF debug Plugin
7
9 The plugin provides two dnf commands:
10
11 debug-dump
12 Writes system RPM configuration to a dump file
13
14 debug-restore
15 Restore the installed packages to the versions written in the
16 dump file. By default, it does not remove already installed ver‐
17 sions of install-only packages and only marks those versions
18 that are mentioned in the dump file for installation. The final
19 decision on which versions to keep on the system is left to dnf
20 and can be fine-tuned using the installonly_limit (see
21 dnf.conf(5)) configuration option.
22
23 NOTE:
24 DNF and Yum debug files are not compatible and thus can't be used by
25 the other program.
