[solved]DNF is not in sync with MCC

[Spinnifex]

Hello.

I was used to update my system mostly via

Code: Select all

dnf

But since I installed Mag9 the

Code: Select all

dnf update


respond often with nothing todo.

Even if I clear all data via

Code: Select all

dnf clean all


What maybe missing?
I know this behavior from Mag8 in case of driver for e.G. Nvidia.
But today I get an update

Code: Select all

sqlite

Which I can't get via dnf anyway.
For me it is very important to update the packages via dnf
because of (OCD).
If something "went wrong" in my head I want to cancel the update.
Which is possible via terminal but not via MCC.
You can't cancel the download if this is started!
I guess no one does this often but for me this is common.
Even if you click the close button of the download dialog.
The dialog appears again (I use KDE).
My only rescue then often is to start the System Monitor and Kill the Process.


Maybe I should use

Code: Select all

urpmi

?

That is because MCC uses urpmi and not dnf. dnf uses separate repositories.
You should read https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Using_DNF#Ch ... positories and the rest of that page.

It's probably better if you just use urpmi instead.

Hello.

Thanks!

Good to know.
Is this new as with Mag9 ?
Like I wrote I did not got this behavior with Mag8.

No, MCC always used urpmi.
