πŸ’– DNF4-DEBUGINFO-INSTALL(8) πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is a page from the dnf-plugins-core manual, and it's all about the dnf4-debuginfo-install plugin. yes, the whole thing lives at version 4.7.0 and it was blessed onto the world on Aug 10, 2026 β€” we'll get to the cute sign-off at the end πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

dnf4-debuginfo-install β€” the DNF debuginfo-install Plugin, bestie πŸ’…

Like, its whole personality? Installing the associated debuginfo packages for a given package specification. that's it, that's the vibe πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dnf debuginfo-install <pkg-spec>...

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • <pkg-spec> β€” the package you wanna grab the associated debuginfo package for. give it the package, it gives you the debuginfo, no cap 🫢

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

All general DNF options are accepted, okay? so like, every single one of them. go peek at Options in dnf(8) for the deets β€” that's where the whole menu lives πŸ“–βœ¨


πŸ“ CONFIGURATION πŸ“

The config file is:

/etc/dnf/plugins/debuginfo-install.conf

The minimal content of the conf file should contain main sections with enabled and autoupdate parameters. lowkey minimal, highkey essential πŸ’œ

autoupdate

A boolean option which controls updates of debuginfo packages. here's the tea: if the option is enabled and there are debuginfo packages installed, it automatically enables all configured debuginfo repositories. iconic behaviour fr fr.

Heads up bestie β€” it's disabled by default. so don't come for me when it's not doing the thing πŸ™ˆ
