Moreover I've mentioned there possible path name alternatives like /etc/software.repos.d, /etc/vendors.repos.d, /etc/rpm.repos.d, /etc/rpm-md.repos.d, /etc/system.repos.d. The type of the metadata format could be defined by `type` option in the file itself like Suse does so we don't need to have any specifier before `repos.d`. > From: "Dennis Gilmore" <dennis@xxxxxxxx> > > As others have mentioned I do not think that distro.repos.d is not really > appropriate.

This will be compatible with yum again in DNF-2.0. Some of the yum options, PK and DNF does not currently understand though.
