 I've looked on multiple occasions for a 'dnf

 in info containing 'source' or maintainer.

 Let's take an example:
 $ dnf info kubernetes-client
 Source       : kubernetes-1.20.5-1.fc34.src.rpm
 Repository   : @System
 From repo    : fedora
 URL          : https://k8s.io/kubernetes
 (...License, Description, Size, Architecture, Version, Release, Summary)

 How or where do I make a suggestion? Can I send a patch/PR to the
 automated build process, if there is one?

I'm not 100% sure if you mean a request to Fedora or upstream, but most of
the info you're looking for should be found here:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kubernetes

The key is you have to use the source name even though many packages can be
generated from it (Note the Sources tag).
