No pattern is required. That's what the brackets around
'<package-spec>...' signify.  Similarly, 'options' are,
unsurprisingly, optional. :)

Leaving it off makes more sense, IMO.  It provides the same
results (this was from f42):

    $ dnf -qq list | wc -l
    77780

    $ dnf -qq list '*' | wc -l
    77780
