I tried passing the following option, but it still installs weak dependencies when upgrading:
–setopt=install_weak_deps=False
Any suggestions?
f41 with dnf5
for dnf5 on F41:
sudo dnf config-manager setopt install_weak_deps=0
to unset:
sudo dnf config-manager unsetopt install_weak_deps
I do those commands just once and then they’re set for every time I update/install?
Yes, you can double check with cat /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
you may want to read through:

A question for those in the know:
When looking to discuss the weak (or strong) dependencies for a package, what would be the preferred venue for that? Would it be on Bugzilla or elsewhere?
