How to use Fedora software manager?

Postby dedanna1029 » 23 Apr 2023, 16:37

So, *I think* I can get through all the spam on this site to ask a legitimate question? I've installed Fedora 38 on my computer, installed dnfdragora, and have the packages I want to install selected. However, there is no "Install" button or anything similar to start the installation of those packages! I assumed there would be one, and that it would ask for sudo password to install when I clicked it, but alas, nothing! Nothing in the menus, either.
Anyone?
Thanks!

This is resolved. You have to launch it via CLI:

Code: Select all

sudo dnfdragora


After that, all is peachy.
