I think not
(
?
) is some weird amalgamation of yum that wraps rpm
-ostree itself
A
Ashlynn
•
7/27/24, 10:49 AM
just replace anything you
'd do with dnf
/yum with rpm
-ostree
(same arguments otherwise
, i
.e
. rpm
-ostree install
)

as I have noticed when doing
dnf install
it resorts to using rpm
-tree
