When I build an rpm package with the same name as a package that already exists in a repo and type the command
$ dnf info package
This command only shows information about the built package. I would like to be able to run above command and dnf builddep package, and be able to choose which package I get information from.
Is there a way to differentiate between repo and self built packages without giving them different names?
Addendum: Built packages have newer versions
fedora package-management rpm dnf

Look at the lines Repo and From repo in the dnf info output. These will tell you:
Repotells you the repository that an available package is in. If the package is installed then it will tell you@System.From repoappears only for installed packages. It gives the repository from which an installed package originated. It shows a repo name (e.g.fedoraorupdates) or@commandlinefor a manually installed RPM.
dnf builddep will install build dependencies for the latest version of the named package in the repositories. It doesn't do anything with manually installed RPMs.

Ahh I see now, but how would I differentiate packages when usingdnf builddep package? If I have two packages with the same name, will it not just return results for one of them only?

@MyWrathAcademia If you've got two packages with the same name, they should be the same software (even if different versions).

@MyWrathAcademia And in any case, if you're rebuilding source RPMs and not usingmockthen you're doing it wrong.

I don't get@commandlinefor a package I installed usingrpm -ivh. However, the rest is correct. I am usingfpm, what canmockdo that makes it necessary when building source RPM's?
