LIBDNF 5 plugins and Etckeeper
21 April 2025When DNF package manager 5 replaced DNF 4 in Fedora 41, I noticed that integration between Etckeeper and the package manager stopped working. I searched bugzilla and found that the problem has been already reported as Fedora BZ 2326283 and that there was nobody working on it so far. Since Etckeeper is important part of my setup, I postponed upgrade to Fedora 41 on my main machine, and started looking into how DNF 5 plugin API differs from the previous version, and how could one get the Etckeeper integration working again.
