== Detailed Description ==
For DNF 2.0 in Fedora 25, the DNF team would like to make the default
repository configuration directory /etc/distro.repos.d. In contrast to
/etc/yum.repos.d (current default path), /etc/distro.repos.d path is a
package manager agnostic name and less misleading. The configuration
files are currently used by DNF, PackageKit, and Yum. The proposed
location more accurately reflects the nature of the repositories, and
also implies that other tools can look there for repository
information. Note: current default repository configuration directory
/etc/yum.repos.d will still be supported by package managers but
/etc/distro.repos.d would be preferred default path.
Shouldn't that be /usr/lib/distro.repos.d (for distribution-provided
data) with usual rules for overriding/masking in /etc/distro.repos.d (for
local administrator)?
The "distro" part is just plain misleading, which makes it a bad name.
It has little to do with distro and everything to do with system
configuration.
Why not just /etc/system.repos.d?
