python-dnf-plugins-core is also possible

Name        : python-dnf-plugins-core
Arch        : noarch
Epoch       : 0
Version     : 0.1.10
Release     : 1.fc22

Summary     : Core Plugins for DNF
URL         : https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf-plugins-core
License     : GPLv2+
Description : Core Plugins for DNF, Python 2 interface. This package enhance DNF
            : with builddep, copr, debuginfo-install, download, kickstart,
            : needs-restarting, repoquery and reposync commands. Additionally
            : provides generate_completion_cache, noroot and protected_packages
            : passive plugins.

The dnf-plugins-core package only contains manual pages, whereas python-dnf-plugins-core contains the actual plugins for python2 and python3-dnf-plugins-core contains the plugins for python3 (all built from the same source rpm).

 dnf-plugins-core acts more as a -common package or a meta package that, currently, pulls python-dnf-plugins-core (but python-dnf-plugins-core doesn't require dnf-plugins-core); I guess in future when dnf switches to using python3 by default it'll require python3-dnf-plugins-core.
