You've already done what I would do. Is there a way to get packages from the Xfce Desktop group, or that you have installed? If you can get that list, you could put it in a file and run a #! /bin/bash dnf reinstall \ pkg1 \ pkg2\ ... pkg?? I was playing around with this trying to get a list of packages, and I used the command dnf group info 'Xfce Desktop' and received a list of groups that are in that group. There were many optional xfce groups. The one you want is probably one of them. If you then do a dnf group info 'Applications for the Xfce Desktop' it will give you a list of the packages for that group. That doesn't get you a group reinstall, but it allows you to reinstall select packages. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
