Question by Rjl931189261
Hi! I am using Mageia 6 and I am happy to see this news. However, I can't find dnf-plugins-extras and dnf-plugin-system-upgrade in http://madb.mageia.org/package/list/t_search/dnf/release/cauldron/application/0/arch/x86_64 (It seems that the system-upgrade plugin has been moved into the dnf-plugins-extras repo. so I don't need to install it separatly？)
so will this feature be available for mga6 users later? ^_^

DNF already works fine in cauldron / Mageia 6 since a year ago.
Read Using DNF for instructions on how to use it.
If you'd like to have a graphical frontend, you can install dnfdragora.

This page was originally written around DNF 1.x. During the development of Mageia 6, DNF 2.x became available and we migrated to that instead.
The extra plugins are all built out as separate RPMs. To date, these are the plugins available:
- dnf-plugins-extras-debug
- dnf-plugins-extras-leaves
- dnf-plugins-extras-local
- dnf-plugins-extras-kickstart
- dnf-plugins-extras-repoclosure
- dnf-plugins-extras-repograph
- dnf-plugins-extras-repomanage
- dnf-plugins-extras-rpmconf
- dnf-plugins-extras-show-leaves
- dnf-plugins-extras-snapper
- dnf-plugins-extras-system-upgrade
- dnf-plugins-extras-tracer
- dnf-plugins-extras-versionlock
- dnf-plugins-extras-torproxy
More details on each plugin can be found in the documentation.

Question (Rjl931189261)
thanks，but I only found python2-dnf-plugins-extras-* and python3-dnf-plugins-extras-* by using
sudo dnf search dnf
I cannot find dnf-plugins-extras-* ... so just install both the python2-* one and the python3-* one ?
Reply (marja)
ngompa explained on IRC that all those packages are provided by the python3-* packages.
So you can just run e.g.
dnf install dnf-plugins-extras-show-leaves
and then python3-dnf-plugins-extras-show-leaves will be installed + all needed dependencies.
