Comandos equivalentes do APT no Fedora com DNF

APT é o gerenciador de pacotes / solucionador de dependências para o ecossistema Debian, ou seja, ele gerencia pacotes .deb instalados pelo programa DPKG. O software Fedora é baseado em pacotes .rpm e, portanto, usa o DNF, o gerenciador de pacotes/solucionador de dependências para o programa RPM. Este documento oferece uma breve visão geral dos comandos do APT mais comuns que podem ser encontrados em tutoriais e seus equivalentes DNF.

Comandos APT vs. DNF

Tabela 1. Comandos Apt vs DNF
APT command	DNF command	notes
`apt install` `apt-get install`	`dnf install`	Of course, actual package names may vary. For example, `libc6-dev` on Debian maps to `glibc-devel` in the Fedora universe.
`apt update` `apt-get update`	`dnf check-update`	This command is rarely needed, as dnf updates its package cache automatically when it is stale. A cache update can be forced by appending `--refresh` to other commands, e.g. `dnf upgrade --refresh`.
`apt upgrade` `apt-get upgrade`	`dnf upgrade`	Note that while `apt update` does something different, `dnf update` and `dnf upgrade` are synonyms. You can also use the shorter `dnf up`.
`apt full-upgrade` `apt-get dist-upgrade`	`dnf distro-sync` or `dnf system-upgrade` (see note)	While `distro-sync` is the most direct functional equivalent, `dnf system-upgrade` should be used to upgrade from one release to another, e.g. from Fedora Linux 34 to 35. This is a multi-step process as described here.
`apt remove` `apt-get remove`	`dnf remove`
`apt purge` `apt-get purge`	---	Fedora packages don’t treat configuration files in the same way as Debian packages, so there is no direct equivalent.
`apt autoremove` `apt-get autoremove`	`dnf autoremove`	Note that this can occasionally remove packages that you might actually want. Use `dnf mark` to flag packages to keep.
`apt search` `apt-cache search`	`dnf search`	`dnf repoquery` is useful for advanced searches.

With the exceptions of the distribution upgrade working differently, and DNF updating the cache automatically, the commands are very similar. More info on DNF can be found here.

Por que o APT está nos repositórios do Fedora?

APT não pode ser usado para instalar pacotes no Fedora, você deve usar o DNF para isso.

The apt command on Fedora used to — until Fedora 32 — actually be APT-RPM, which basically mapped normal apt commands so that they worked with Fedora’s RPM package management system.

However, APT-RPM is unmaintained, broken, and insecure, and so was dropped in favour of shipping the actual Debian APT software. Since APT exclusively deals with .deb packages, the apt command can no longer be used to manage Fedora packages. Its purpose is now purely as a tool for people building packages for Debian-based distributions on a Fedora system.
