Description Adrien D 2021-03-14 11:36:26 CET

Description of problem:
When you enable tainted repos in the MCC, it's possible to install (upgrade) software from tainted with MCC Gui, urpmi but the mageia-tainted.repo not updated in yum.repos.d and with dnf, unable to search, install from tainted.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Mageia 8
2. Enable tainted with MCC
3. Try to update the system with dnf : no updates
4. Try to update with urpmi : some updates

not a bug as such as dnf repo management is not integrated in drakx tools...

Severity: normal => enhancement

Comment 2 Nicolas Lécureuil 2021-03-14 15:03:06 CET

Yes, for me this bug is invalid.

Mageia uses urpmi by default. If you enable tainted in mcc it will completly work using urpmi.

Currently, the only way to manipulate DNF repositories with a GUI under Mageia is to use Plasma Discover.

DNFdragora can activate them but the dnfdaemon backend does not save those activated after quitting the application. Our devs are waiting for libDNF stabilization.

We would like to have such tool soon for Mageia 9.
