When I try to install or update something, some repositories are duplicated:

$ sudo dnf install ./XXX.rpm

Dependencies resolved.

as you can see, some repositories, like Fedora 35 - x86_64 - Updates or Fedora Modular 35 - x86_64 - Updates are being duplicated.

Why is that?

You could check if your repositories really are duplicated by running dnf repolist.

If you’re using Gnome, you can open Gnome Software Center, then on top left you can find hamburger menu. Open it and click Software Repositories then make the change as you like.

You should also be careful. Having both the rpmfusion-nonfree-nvidia-driver repo and the rpmfusion-nonfree repo enabled at the same time can cause conflicts with packages. The two are not always in sync with nvidia driver packages and versions.

IME I always prefer the nonfree vs the nonfree-nvidia-driver version.
