So when I do a dnf search Lucene I don't get any version number in the
pckage name, what's the fedora way to know which version of Lucene is
being currently packaged ? (reading the spec file ?) , I now know what
the dependancies for Derby are in terms of version numbers?
Using repoquery on the rawhide repo:
$ sudo dnf --repo=rawhide repoquery lucene
lucene-0:8.4.1-9.fc33.noarch
This gives results as:
<package>-<epoch>:<version>-<release>.<arch>
So lucene package is currently at version 8.4.1
