Description Shuicheng Lin 2020-01-13 01:17:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
when using repoquery in yum, when run below command “sudo  repoquery -c $MY_WORKSPACE/export/yum.conf --whatprovides 'bash' 'yum'”

it will show the below result. 

bash-0:4.2.46-31.el7.x86_64
bash-0:4.2.46-31.el7.tis.4.x86_64
yum-0:3.4.3-161.el7.centos.noarch

But for repoquery of dnf, 

[sysadmin@centos8-dev ~] $  dnf --cacheonly -c /etc/yum.conf repoquery --whatprovides  'dnf'
dnf-0:4.0.9.2-1.el7_6.noarch
dnf-0:4.0.9.2-5.el8.noarch
[sysadmin@centos8-dev ~] $  dnf --cacheonly -c /etc/yum.conf repoquery --whatprovides  'bash'
bash-0:4.2.46-33.el7.x86_64
bash-0:4.4.19-7.el8.i686
bash-0:4.4.19-7.el8.x86_64
bash-0:4.4.19-8.el8_0.x86_64

But for 
"dnf --cacheonly -c /etc/yum.conf repoquery --whatprovides  'dnf' 'bash'"
it return empty result. 

or
"dnf --cacheonly -c /etc/yum.conf repoquery --whatprovides  'dnf' --whatprovides 'bash'"

it only return 'bash' result , no dnf result. 

bash-0:4.2.46-33.el7.x86_64
bash-0:4.4.19-7.el8.i686
bash-0:4.4.19-7.el8.x86_64
bash-0:4.4.19-8.el8_0.x86_64

Comment 1 Marek Blaha 2020-01-13 11:31:10 UTC 
This is regression, my guess is that it is somehow connected with change of the option parser. I'll look into it.
Comment 2 Marek Blaha 2020-01-13 12:00:56 UTC 
Sorry my fault, it is not a regression. The correct way how to add more arguments to --what* switches is to separate them by comma:

$ dnf repoquery --whatprovides dnf,bash
bash-0:5.0.11-1.fc30.i686
bash-0:5.0.11-1.fc30.x86_64
bash-0:5.0.2-1.fc30.i686
bash-0:5.0.2-1.fc30.x86_64
dnf-0:4.2.17-1.fc30.noarch
dnf-0:4.2.17-24g60b69848.fc30.noarch
dnf-0:4.2.17-28gc9b9087c.fc30.noarch
dnf-0:4.2.17-31g9fcfb492.fc30.noarch
dnf-0:4.2.17-35g7a43cebe.fc30.noarch
dnf-0:4.2.2-2.fc30.noarch

But unfortunately it is not documented.
