I think that's because you need to add --available to the
list subcommand to not include all the installed packages.
Per dnf5-list(8):
--installed
List only installed packages.
--available
List only available packages.
In a Fedora 42 container:
# check the package count from rpm, for comparison with
# dnf list --installed
$ rpm -qa | grep -v ^gpg-pubkey | wc -l
123
$ dnf -qq list --installed | tail -n+2 | wc -l
123
$ dnf -qq --repo=fedora-cisco-openh264 list --installed | tail -n+2 | wc -l
123
$ dnf -qq --repo=fedora-cisco-openh264 list --available | tail -n+2 | wc -l
3
$ dnf -qq --repo=fedora-cisco-openh264 list --available
Available packages
mozilla-openh264.x86_64 2.4.1-2.fc42 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264.x86_64 2.4.1-2.fc42 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264-devel.x86_64 2.4.1-2.fc42 fedora-cisco-openh264
I think it's a buglet that even with -qq the 'Installed
packages' and 'Available packages' headers are printed. But
that's just another tangent.
