Will it FINALLY use one copy of metadata for all system users?
Do you have a proposal as to how that might be possible in a
secure way?
I do not see how fetching megabytes of metadata is better than using
copy present in /var/cache/dnf/ directory.
Well it could just use the cached copy sure, but if it was out of
date then it wouldn't be able to update it?
It is faster to enter long password to use sudo than to wait until dnf
fetch useless copy of metadata.
Agreed, which is why I always run dnf under sudo even for query
operations.
Debian has APT. APT uses one copy of metadata. Be wise. Like Debian.
Do we know how? Do they just not allow non-root users to get up
to date data, or do they do something cleverer?
