introducing fed-install: easy way to install packages from koji and other releases

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

 



Hello Fedora,

for some time, I am using rawhide as my main system. I always struggled with installation of non-rawhide packages: installing stable kernel, downgrading to a non-broken package, reinstalling package which is no longer available in repositories...

I thought that somebody had to write a tool for that. To my surprise, I haven't really found anything useful. So I wrote a simple tool to automate installation of packages from koji and other Fedora releases. The tool is just a wrapper on top of a single dnf call (usually just --enablerepo, --disablerepo magic):


I have finally managed to open source the tool and make it a decent open source project including integration tests, manpage, --help, sane (python3) code.

Right now I'm not sure if it's worth to include such tool in Fedora repositories and this is where I would love to get some feedback! So please, have a look and let me know whether it's useful or not.


Tomas
