Maxwell G d2b033519c doc: call Python build script as a pre_build job 
RTD now supports adding extra commands [1] as jobs to run during
different parts of the build stage. This can be used to call the Python
build script instead of (ab)using RTD's setup.py support.

README.md

DNF5

DNF5 is a command-line package manager that automates the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing computer programs in a consistent manner. It supports RPM packages, modulemd modules, and comps groups and environments.

As part of the DNF5 stack, libdnf is the package management library. It was originally written to support the DNF package manager, but gradually grew up into a versatile library. You can now use libdnf to build custom tools that load repositories, query packages, resolve dependencies, and install packages.

DNF5 is also powered with the libsolv library which provides an easy to use programming interface.

By using DNF5, you can work with the following artifacts:

  • RPM repositories (repomd)
  • RPM packages
  • Comps groups
  • Comps environments
  • Advisories (updateinfo, errata)
  • Modules (modulemd)

DNF5 is written in C++ and it can interface with the following programming languages:

  • C++ - fully supported.
  • Python 3 - fully supported.
  • Perl 5 - best effort.
  • Ruby - best effort.

Note, however, that DNF5 cannot yet interface with the following programming languages:

  • Go - does not work, we are looking for contributors.
  • C - not implemented, not a priority for any of our existing API users.

Installing DNF5

DNF5 is available since Fedora 38. To install the DNF5 package manager, use either of the following commands, depending on your Fedora release:

Fedora release Command
37 sudo dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf-nightly && sudo dnf install dnf51
38 or newer sudo dnf install dnf5

Note: dnf-nightly provides nightly builds for the entire DNF stack. Once you enable this repository you will start receiving updates for DNF, libdnf, and for the other packages of the stack.

Testing DNF5 obsoletes DNF

Optionally you can install DNF5 from these COPR repositories23. The packages are build using the copr option --rpmbuilds-with dnf5_obsoletes_dnf. By installing these packages DNF5 will be the default package manager in your system. You will still be able to use DNF running dnf4.

Packages from dnf5-testing are versioned following Fedora release pace and are updated every two weeks. Packages from dnf5-testing-nightly are built nightly.

Command DNF5 Version
sudo dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf5-testing2 Fedora rawhide version
sudo dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf5-testing-nightly3 Nightly Builds
