Thanks Ed. I issued the command and got back Packager: None.
I then tried the same command on a package that I know only exists in the
Negativo17
repositories and that gave the same response of Packager : None.
Another option...
dnf info kmod-nvidia
Thanks Ed, I tried that command and it did tell me that it was indeed
installed and which repository it came from. I then tried a dnf info
kmod-nvidia* which showed me all the associated packages from the
Negativo17 and Rpmfusion repositories. It also told me that the
kmod-nvidia-$(uname -r) packages were installed and came from repository
@commandline, which I assume means they were compiled, which surprised
me because I thought the purpose of the kmod-nvidia metadata package was
to pull in and install the pre-compiled nvidia binary packages matching
the kernel, is that not correct?
I also thought the akmod-nvidia package was in both the Negativo17 and
Rpmfusion repositories, but when I issue 'dnf info akmod-nvidia' it only
shows me information relative the installed version that came from the
Negativo17 repository. Shouldn't it have told me that there was an
installed version that came from the Negativo17 repository and an
uninstalled version in the Rpmfusion repository?
Just relative to the 2nd message in my original thread, isn't that
message for the standard F24 kernel, saying that it has an unsatisfiable
dependency on the associated kernel-core package? My issue with that is
if that is the case, how and why did a 'sudo dnf upgrade' issued the day
after the upgrade install that kernel, because I believe the missing
dependency should have stopped it from being installed, or am I missing
something?

Steve
