Thanks for the pointer to the issue. At least I'm not going insane.

I suspect supporting the modules system in DNF would be a bit tricky
too, so I'm happy enough going with an mkosi.prepare script for now.

Slightly annoyingly it means I have to actually install dnf and it's
deps inside the container built to run that, but I can always remove it
again after.

Have subscribed to the issue.

Cheers

Col
