# fedora-repoquery
A dnf wrapper to repoquery different Fedora releases,
caching repodata separately per release.
It also supports EPEL, Centos Stream and ELN repos.
## Usage
Usage examples:
`$ fedora-repoquery rawhide firefox`
```
firefox-148.0-1.fc45.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
```
(note it is shorter to write `fedora-repoquery 45`).
`$ fedora-repoquery 43 --requires filesystem`
```
group(mail)
setup
```
`$ fedora-repoquery epel10 ghc`
```
ghc-9.6.6-146.el10_0.x86_64 (epel10)
```
`$ fedora-repoquery c10 bash`
```
bash-5.2.26-6.el10.x86_64 (c10s-BaseOS)
```
`$ fedora-repoquery eln kernel`
```
kernel-7.0.0-0.rc3.260312g80234b5ab240.32.eln155.x86_64 (eln-BaseOS)
```
Without a release argument, the system yum repo configuration is used:
`$ fedora-repoquery pandoc-cli`
```
pandoc-cli-3.7.0.2-40.fc44.x86_64 (rawhide)
```
`$ fedora-repoquery --whatrequires pandoc`
```
pandoc-pdf-3.7.0.2-40.fc44.x86_64 (rawhide)
python3-pypandoc-1.16.2-1.fc44.noarch (rawhide)
```
Use the --time (-T) option to display repo timestamps:
```
$ fedora-repoquery -T 43 fedrq
2025-10-26 01:59:02 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/releases/43/>
2026-03-12 09:53:14 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/updates/43/>
fedrq-1.5.0-5.fc43.noarch (f43)
```
Repo timestamp(s) are output when there are no query args
after the release version:
`$ fedora-repoquery 44`
```
2026-03-13 19:08:04 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/development/44/>
2026-03-13 09:38:02 +08 <https://mirror.freedif.org/fedora/fedora/linux/updates/testing/44/>
```
One can also query multiple releases (or arch's):
`$ fedora-repoquery 43 44 python3.x86_64`
```
python3-3.14.0-1.fc43.x86_64 (f43)
python3-3.14.3-1.fc43.x86_64 (f43-updates)
python3-3.14.3-1.fc44.x86_64 (f44-development)
```
There is an option to use the CloudFront cache:
`$ fedora-repoquery --cf 44 rust`
```
rust-1.93.1-1.fc44.x86_64 (f44-development-cf)
rust-1.94.0-1.fc44.x86_64 (f44-updates-testing-cf)
```
which may be faster than dl.fp.o and fresher than other mirrors sometimes.
## Help

```

`$ fedora-repoquery --help`
