Re: [CentOS] Upgrade to 8.4 .2105 Problems
Thank you. I managed: #!/bin/bash for rp in `rpm -q -a ` do echo $rp rpm --verify $rp done but rpm -Va is neater. It only showed up config files and the like that you would expect to be different. I'll check the list of rpms next against a clean install/upgrade to make sure I have them all.

I noticed in journalctl that gnome-shell was core dumping. yum reinstall gnome-shell fixed my displays problem. So I am back to my first premise that the 'yum update' did not complete properly for some reason. Is there any way I can check the integrity of the packages installed? What could cause 'yum upgrade' to say 'Nothing to do' and not install the latest 305 kernel?
