dnf group install with-optional but only some options?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Putting together a development workstation for PHP and Ruby work, and
was hoping the group install option would speed the time picking and
choosing the many packages.

Is it possible to install only one or two of the "Optional groups" or
is it an all-or-nothing choice?

Had a question on the dnf command:

The "Group info" command lists mandatory and optional groups.

# dnf group info "Web Server"
Last metadata expiration check performed 3:19:40 ago on Tue Nov 17

Environment Group: Web Server
 Description: Server for serving static and dynamic internet content.
 Mandatory Groups:
   Basic Web Server
   Core
   Hardware Support
   Standard
 Optional Groups:
   Guest Agents
   HAProxy
   Java Application Server
   MariaDB (MySQL) Database
   MongoDB
   PHP
   Perl for Web
   PostgreSQL Database
   Python
   Ruby on Rails
   Tomcat


The help for group install in the man pages and
http://dnf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/command_ref.html  shows the
'with-optional' phrase:

dnf [options] group install [with-optional] <group-spec>...

So, the optional groups pretty much include everything except the
kitchen sink, and I wonder if I can avoid installing a couple of
languages and two databases I don't need, or if I should just skip the
group install as an installation technique>
