.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
The plugin provides two dnf commands:
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \fBdebug\-dump\fP
Writes system RPM configuration to a dump file
.TP
.B \fBdebug\-restore\fP
Restore the installed packages to the versions written in the dump file. By
default, it does not remove already installed versions of install\-only
packages and only marks those versions that are mentioned in the dump file
for installation. The final decision on which versions to keep on the
system is left to dnf and can be fine\-tuned using the \fIinstallonly_limit\fP
(see \fBdnf.conf(5)\fP) configuration option.

\fBNOTE:\fP

.INDENT 3.5
DNF and Yum debug files are not compatible and thus can\(aqt be used
by the other program.
