The dnf5-group command is a tool used to manage package groups within the DNF5 package manager. Package groups are collections of packages that provide a specific functionality or environment.

This command allows users to list available groups, install entire groups of packages at once, remove groups, and view the packages contained within a group. It simplifies the process of installing and managing collections of related software components. DNF5 group commands are designed to streamline common tasks, making it easier to set up environments tailored for specific development or application needs.

Functionality might differ from legacy DNF or yum implementations of group commands. Some features might be missing or behave differently.

List all available groups:
dnf5 group list --available

Install a group:
dnf5 group install "My Group"

Remove a group:
dnf5 group remove "My Group"

Show information about a group:
dnf5 group info "My Group"

DNF5 is a next-generation version of the DNF package manager. The dnf5-group command inherits the core functionality of the previous DNF group command but is reimplemented with improved performance and a redesigned architecture. DNF5 represents a significant shift toward modularity and efficiency in package management.
