## Disabling DNF Count Me on a system
To disable this feature, you need to update the Count Me option in all RPM
repository configuration files:
To disable this feature, you need to stop the `rpm-ostree-countme.timer` and
mask the corresponding unit as a precaution:
```
sed -i 's/countme=1/countme=0/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo
$ systemctl mask --now rpm-ostree-countme.timer
```
You should also stop and disable the `rpm-ostree-countme.timer`:
If you have packages layered on top of the base image from an RPM repository,
then you will have to make sure that the `countme` option is disabled there
until we fix [this issue in libdnf][libdnfissue]:
```
$ systemctl disable --now rpm-ostree-countme.timer
$ sed -i 's/countme=1/countme=0/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo
```
Note that once you do that, those repository configuration files will be
considered as locally modified by ostree which will hence ignore any other
changes to the defaults that may happen via a future update. You can always
restore the original configuration or propagate updates from the default
configuration available in `/usr/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo`.
