It does have the issue. rpm-ostree links to libdnf which is doing all the same things. As I commented in the bug though, to do default image based updates, rpm-ostree very intentionally *does not* load the repo metadata, it's just replicating the filesystem tree, which takes very little memory. The issue really has nothing to do with the client side - it's all about the *repository metadata size*. That's why I reassigned the bug to "distribution". The reason this bug isn't hitting RHEL right now is simply just because the default RHEL repositories are much smaller - also crucially things like many -devel packages are in a separate repository. I don't see a need to rehash all of this *again* - the linked BZ already contains everything said in this thread, and the BZ itself is mainly rehashing a 4 year old thread https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1955 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-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/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
