DNF5-PROVIDES(8)

NAME
dnf5-provides - Provides Command

SYNOPSIS

dnf5 provides [global options] <package-spec>...

DESCRIPTION

The provides command in DNF5 finds the packages providing the given <package-spec>. It can match specs by Provides or by filename.

EXAMPLES

dnf5 provides tito
    Outputs which packages provide the command tito.

dnf5 provides /usr/bin/tito
    Outputs which package provides the file /usr/bin/tito

dnf5 provides zless
    There is no Provides for zless but a package that contains zless exist.
    Outputs the package that provides the file /usr/bin/zless

    NOTE: New behavior: if one or more packages are not found by provides DNF5 will now return exit code 1 and list all provides that do not match at the end of the output.

dnf5 provides rpm nonexistent_package
    Output provides for rpm and inform in stderr that nonexistent_package
    did not match any result.
