fedora-repoquery

A fedora release version wrapper of dnf repoquery, which caches repodata separately per release.

Usage

Usage examples:

$ fdrq rawhide firefox

firefox-128.0-2.fc41.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)

$ fdrq 40 --requires filesystem

setup

$ fdrq epel9 ghc

ghc-8.10.7-116.el9.x86_64 (epel9)

$ fdrq c10 bash

bash-5.2.26-4.el10.x86_64 (c10s-BaseOS)

$ fdrq eln kernel

kernel-6.10.0-64.eln141.x86_64 (eln-BaseOS)

etc.

With the --time option the timestamp of repos is also shown:

$ 2024-07-16 19:45:44 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/development/rawhide>

fedrq-1.1.0-3.fc41.noarch (fedora-rawhide)

The repo timestamp(s) can also be output with no args after the release version: $ fdrq 40

2024-04-20 02:22:34 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/releases/40>
2024-07-16 12:29:35 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/updates/40>

Also note that dnf5 currently still outputs repo update messages to stdout but it is a lot faster than dnf4.
