Re: DNF5 wants to replace regular rpms with modules

[Petr Pisar]

As far as I know DNF5 has not yet fully support modules. Probably the
build of DNF5 you use still does not perform modular filtering. I
believe that should change before adding DNF5 into Fedora. As a
workaround, if you do not use modules, simply disable the modular
repositories.
