Definitely the latter: change. I use those ten colors constantly.
But I get :
# dnf install 'dnf command(color_list_available_install)'

[root@localhost btth]# dnf color_list_available_install
No such command: color_list_available_install. Please use /usr/bin/dnf --

It could be a DNF plugin command, try: "dnf install 'dnf-
command(color_list_available_install)'"
I've chewed and chewed on the above and several variant
interpretations of it -- and I'm lost.
I have no idea what you're trying to do here. Open the
/etc/dnf/dnf.conf file in an editor and add lines to set the colors. I
don't know what the syntax is for the colors, but something like:
color_list_available_downgrade=red
color_list_available_install=green
Maybe hex codes like #129a44 would be accepted as well.
