Just adding my 2 cents.
Last time I did a clean setup was about two years ago and I have
been upgrading through dnf since then. oomd has not been included.
pepebuho@pepewin:~$ dnf list oomd
Updating and loading repositories:
Repositories loaded.
Available packages
oomd.x86_64 0.5.0-15.fc43 fedora
I am using the XFCE distro
Please don't head-post
oomd is installed from systemd-udev and its required for any Fedora
system.

-----------------------------------------------------
I am posting this as a reply to Barry's message but it is just a
comment after reading this thread for several days. I have 2 fedora 43
systems that were new when fedora 41 was current and have been
upgraded. Neither of them have oom or oomd installed that I have found.
However, they do have choom in /usr/bin. There is also a man enty for
choom and also for systemd-oomd.service. I wonder if the functionality of oomd
has been put
in choom?
This thread got confused a while back. "oomd" is something different.
The default in Fedora is "systemd-oomd" which is provided by the
"systemd-udev" package. "choom" is a way to adjust the "badness" score
of processes to affect how the oom killer will treat them.
systemctl status systemd-oomd
