DNF5-INSTALL(8)

NAME
dnf5-install - 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.
