NAME
       dnf5-distro-sync - Distro-Sync Command

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

DESCRIPTION
       The distro-sync command in DNF5 serves to synchronize the installed
       packages with their latest available version from any enabled
       repository. It upgrades, downgrades or keeps packages as needed.

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

OPTIONS

       --allowerasing
              Allow removing of installed packages to resolve any potential dependency problems.


       --skip-broken
              Resolve any dependency problems by removing packages that are causing problems from the transaction.


       --skip-unavailable
              Allow skipping packages that are not possible to synchronize. All remaining packages will be synchronized.


       --downloadonly
              Download the resolved package set without executing an RPM transaction.


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

       dnf5 distro-sync
              Sync the whole system to the latest available version of packages.


       dnf5 distro-sync vim
