I discovered tmux is installed on my system. In order to find out if it was preinstalled with fedora I ran the command dnf info tmux which prints out:
Installed Packages
Name : tmux
Version : 2.7
Release : 1.fc28
Arch : x86_64
Size : 765 k
Source : tmux-2.7-1.fc28.src.rpm
Repo : @System
From repo : updates
Summary : A terminal multiplexer
URL : https://tmux.github.io/
License : ISC and BSD
Description : tmux is a "terminal multiplexer." It enables a number of terminals (or
: windows) to be accessed and controlled from a single terminal. tmux is
: intended to be a simple, modern, BSD-licensed alternative to programs such
: as GNU Screen.
Based on the above output it seems that @ means "at" so
Repo: @System means at system (i.e. the package is not in a repository instead the package is installed at the system) or in other words (package tmux is) installed at the system
However tracking down the transaction when tmux was installed with dnf history list tmux (which showed something like transaction ID 55), and dnf history list 55 the following line is part of the resulting output:
Install tmux-2.7-1.fc28.x86_64 @updates
The line above makes it clear that tmux was installed from the updates repository but assuming that @ means "at" shouldn't that mean installed at the updates repository? In other words, why does @ in the output of dnf info <packagename> mean "at" e.g. @System means at System, but in the output of dnf history list 55 @ seems to mean from?
Alternatively does @ mean install the package tmux-2.7-1.fc28.x86_64 at the repository @updates, or in other words, install the package tmux-2.7-1.fc28.x86_64 that is at the repository updates? Which makes sense given that the line below from the same output should read as: upgraded subversion at the repository fedora/27
Upgraded subversion-1.9.7-1.fc27.x86_64 @fedora/27
