Identifing package name of application installed with Software

Ask Fedora
1

I’m trying to identify the package name of a package installed using the Software app in Fedora 34 or 35 for that matter. I’m familiar with the “dnf history” command and the “dnf history info <ID#>” to see what was installed from the dnf command line but the output apparently doesn’t show what you did from Software application.

Is there a way to see what was installed after clicking on the install button of an application in the Software application??

Or could this be normal if the application being installed is from flatpak?

Hi,

It won’t appear in dnf history if its a flatpak.

Try issuing: flatpak list

Thanks Tom.

Thanks Tom, that was what I needed. Too many new things to learn for an old man!
