I mean what is the difference between @libreoffice and LibreOffice ?
Have you had the chance to read the dnf man page? Each <spec> can be either a <package-spec>, which specifies a package directly, or a @<group-spec>, which specifies an (environ‐ ment) group which contains it. You can use.... dnf group list to get a list of the installed groups
dnf group info LibreOffice Does this mean that LibreOffice is installed ? If so isn't there a single command to remove the group ?
No, see above.
How is dnf group info LibreOffice different from dnf group info @libreoffice
I actually don't use the @form of group-spec as I forgot (or maybe never knew) how to get a list of the corresponding @forms. I just use the full name in quotes. --- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
