Fedora: dnfdragora doesn't respect /etc/dnf/vars

[changyp6]

According to dnf manual, users can change certain variables by creating a file using the variable name as file name.
I created /etc/dnf/vars/releasever then using echo 37 > /etc/dnf/vars/releasever

If I run dnf makecache, dnf will use "37" as the value of "releasever", however, dnfdragora doesn't respect this variable value.

Well dnfdragora does not use that at all. dnfdaemon could/should do it. I wonder if this is a duplicate of issue #208 that has been fixed in dnfdaemon here. Which version of both, dnfdaemon and dnfdragora are you using?

My dnfdaemon version is 0.3.20, which is the latest version in Fedora 36, dnfdragora version is 2.1.2, which is also the latest version in Fedora 36 Angelo Naselli ***@***.***> 于2022年10月13日周四 05:11写道：

Well that change is into https://github.com/manatools/dnfdaemon/releases/tag/0.3.22 if you could test it i would know if the problem is the same.

Using /etc/dnf/vars works for me, but DNF_VAR_* environment variables don't. Therefore, some repositories that work fine with sudo dnf up aren't listed in dnfdragora. But eh, yumex and even the command-line dnf5daemon-client have the same issue. (I know it's silly since I'm the only one who uses this computer, but I don't want to put my preferences anywhere but under $HOME.)
