#154 Changing a behavior of "dnf module install $name:$stream" in case of there is no default module profile
Closed: Invalid 4 years ago by asamalik. Opened 4 years ago by jaruga.

I have suggestion about a behavior of "dnf module install ruby:$profile".

Right now dnf module install ruby:$profile command returns exit status: 0 (success code) only enabling the stream, even when the default profile is not found, and the RPMs in the module are not installed.

Shall we change the behavior not to enable the module stream, and just to return an exist code non-zero?
Because it's hard to find the issue in a script like https://travis-ci.org/junaruga/switch-module-stream/jobs/587097018#L254 .
As I noticed it today, I sent PR to set the default profile to the ruby module on f30 branch. https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-module-defaults/pull-request/163 .
But ideally I wanted to find the issue on earlier phase.

$ podman run --rm -it fedora:30 bash

# dnf module install ruby:2.5

That feels very much like a bug, yes. A DNF bug, to be specific.
