• Make a decision how to provide a functionality provided by shell
  • interactive shell cannot behave by the same way because the change of Goal workflow (dnf4 - install <unknown> reports problem directly, but in DNF5 it requires resolve)

Command: shell
Aliases: sh

dnf [options] shell [filename]

Open an interactive shell for conducting multiple commands during a single execution of DNF. These commands can be issued manually or passed to DNF from a file. The commands are much the same as the normal DNF command line options. There are a few additional commands documented below.

config [conf-option] [value]

• Set a configuration option to a requested value. If no value is given it prints the current value.

repo [list|enable|disable] [repo-id]

• list: list repositories and their status
• enable: enable repository
• disable: disable repository

transaction [list|reset|solve|run]

• list: resolve and list the content of the transaction
• reset: reset the transaction
• run: resolve and run the transaction

Note that all local packages must be used in the first shell transaction subcommand (e.g. install /tmp/nodejs-1-1.x86_64.rpm /tmp/acpi-1-1.noarch.rpm) otherwise an error will occur. Any disable, enable, and reset module operations (e.g. module enable nodejs) must also be performed before any other shell transaction subcommand is used.
