Install Command
Synopsis
dnf5 install [options] <package-spec>|@<group-spec>|@<environment-spec>...
Description
The install
command in DNF5
is used for installing packages, groups or environments.
When installing packages defined in package-spec
arguments, DNF5
ensures that the packages
and their dependencies are installed on the system.
If the specified packages are already installed, DNF5 does not check their dependencies again and
simply verifies that the packages themselves are present.
When installing groups defined in group-spec
arguments, DNF5
ensures that the groups and
their packages are installed on the system. Installs only group packages matching configured package
type. See dnf5-conf(5), group_package_types.
When installing environments defined in environment-spec
arguments, DNF5
ensures that the
environments and their groups are installed on the system.
