Greetings everyone,
When upgrading packages using dnf the new version of the package is displayed. Is it possible to also show the currently installed version to see the version change?
Like
firefox-76.0-1 -> firefox-76.0-2
or
firefox-76.0-1 -> 76.0-2

Hi @Mershl I don’t think that is possible to see the version difference with the upgrade command, even with the --verbose
flag it doesn’t show.

is not posible using dnf but is you take a look when you update, the last step, show some information:

Two useful command come to my mind:
dnf history list
→ with this command you get a list of all dnf activities, and get the ID
for example:
ID | Línea de comandos | Día y hora | Acción(es) | Modific
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1119 | upgrade | 2020-05-12 18:39 | Upgrade | 9 EE
dnf history info 1119
→ get details information about the task
