Hi there. When I install something with dnf install terminal give me that notification:

  • Curl error (37): Couldn’t read a file:// file for file:///home/zikmaf/repository/repodata/repomd.xml [Couldn’t open file /home/zikmaf/repository/repodata/repomd.xml]
    Next:
    Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried
    And wrote: Ignoring repositories: home_zikmaf_repository

What I need to do to fix it?

Why do you need a custom local repo?
What instruction did you follow to create it?

If be honest I don’t know. I just use command lines that different sources gave me. I am a newbie that’s why I might have done something wrong that I don’t need to. And I don’t remember how I do it. Are you thinking of doing nothing about it?

Can you explain me what this commands do? I think that is unsafe to do commands without any explanations.

And I noticed something funny. I think we both from Russia :grinning: because you, like me take a long time to write messages. Maybe with google translate. And you have a name of russian man

You have no official repos listed, instead there’s some broken local repo.
The commands are supposed to restore your repos configuration to Fedora 33 defaults.

Then you can just disable that broken repo:

sudo dnf config-manager --save --setopt=home_zikmaf_repository.enabled=0
