These are packages that move from the main Fedora distribution into the addon "fedora-modular" repo that is enabled by default on Fedora systems. There are a couple of consequences of this: * They are no longer available for regular packages to use as build dependencies * Only DNF (the CLI tool) can manage them. PackageKit and dnfdragora can't do anything with them yet. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
