I guess the rationale behind that was more of a "repositories of rpm
packages" than "repositories
`rpm` does not care what repositories your system has available, it doesn't
work with them directly. That name would make no sense.

Please don't tie the name with the particular software to avoid this issue in
the future. If you must then I think rpm.repos.d is less likely to avoid this
issue in the future.

Please no, that will introduce it's own set of problems as well.

I just hope that dnf gets renamed to something easier. It doesn't
stick as good as yum, apt or pacman. Anything other than yum will be a
lot of work though.
If anything of the like, /etc/dnf.repos.d makes more sense. These repos are not
necessarily part of the distro.

Please, no. Sysadmins don't like having to change their habits, scripts
and documents for no benefit because somebody renamed something just for
the sake of renaming.

I don't see the point to "change" this directory for "pleasure" if it
doesn't come with more features.
Right now yum.repos.d

Currently DNF reads both of them. So you will end with duplicate repositories,
because DNF would see them twice.

Why not /etc/dnf/repos.d and a symlink for /etc/yum.repos.d?

Hi,
I am curious whether we can move our repo files from
