Yes. 'dnf list tracer' and 'dnf info tracer' both show nothing, though
'dnf search tracer' does find it. There appears to be more than one
'name' associated with some packages and how this works is not clearly
documented.

(BTW I don't quite see how 'which' is telling you what packages are
available. Is this some non-default setting? I use 'dnf search' for
that).
