Distro-Sync Command
Synopsis
dnf5 distro-sync [options] [<package-spec>...]
Description
The distro-sync command in DNF5 serves to synchronize the installed packages
with their latest available version from any enabled repository. It upgrades, downgrades
or keeps packages as needed.
Optional package-spec arguments could be passed to select only specific packages to be synced.
Options
--allowerasing- Allow removing of installed packages to resolve any potential dependency problems.

--skip-unavailable- Allow skipping packages that are not possible to synchronize. All remaining packages will be synchronized.
--downloadonly- Download the resolved package set without executing an RPM transaction.
--offline- Store the transaction to be performed offline. See dnf5-offline(8), Offline command.
Examples
