SYNOPSIS

dnf5 distro-sync [options] [<package-spec>...]

Optional package-spec arguments could be passed to select only specific packages to be synced.

Download the resolved package set without executing an RPM transaction.

Store the transaction to be performed offline. See dnf5-offline(8), Offline command.
