Re: what release am I running ?

Cool, hope that everything keeps working for you.

However, I'd second Gordon in that, IMO, you shouldn't need to run
system-upgrade to get the final release if you already installed F24
Beta (just "dnf upgrade" should get you there), see:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_from_pre-release_to_final

2016-06-28 Thread Jim Cromie 
thank you all for your answers, I'll try to be complete here, but brief
1st, Im not having any troubles - normal ops are fine, sudo dnf update
works, etc.

only oddity is with dual boot - 1st few attempts to boot win10 failed after
installing 24-beta (not an upgrade from f23).  But recent attempts now seem
to work, theyre just a little thrashy (iirc, the bios seems to boot 2x - 2
toshiba splash screens) but it gets there.  This is my 1st EFI bios
machine, so I
dont have anything to compare it to.


[jimc@buffy ~]$ more /etc/fedora-release

/etc/system-release

::

So thos are good, but I dont know whether any of these said "beta" anywhere
before final release

Last metadata expiration check: 0:36:45 ago on Tue Jun 28 10:02:03 2016.
so that looks clean

$ cat /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.json
{"upgrade_status": null, "download_status": null}

which seems kind-of empty,
and counter to what Rick Stevens expected in it,
but again I dont know how it looked before..

to satisfy curiosity, I ran:

[jimc@buffy dnf]$ pwd
/var/lib/dnf
[jimc@buffy dnf]$ sudo strings  history/history-2016-05-04.sqlite | less

saw lots of 'fc24', but no 'beta's other than (mostly) taglib packages.



at this point, things are fine, so Im not gonna sweat the off-chance
that I might still be at "Beta" - all the packages upgraded to final.

In a few weeks I'll be back to those fc23 boxes,
will do those upgrades, and if that suggests anything pertinent here
(longshot)
I'll follow up here.

thanks again y'all

You're pretty much right.  What the plugin actually does is it looks
at the version of the package that provides either the
system-release(releasever) or redhat-release virtual provide and takes
that version as the current releasever.  On Fedora, that package is
fedora-release (you can find out by running "dnf repoquery
--whatprovides redhat-release").

I'd just add that the dnf equivalent is "dnf repoquery --duplicated"

That's the obvious answer, but it's wrong, or at least, it was wrong for 
yum and may be for dnf.  What it does is check the database to find out 
what version of the rpm is installed and that that as the answer. 
Normally, of course, it works just fine.  However, just after an 
upgrade, the database might show both the old and the new version as 
being installed but the program stops when it finds the first result, 
and that's the old one.  Try using package-cleanup --dupes or whatever 
the dnf version is and find out if that's an issue.

If you upgraded to the beta, then "dnf update" has (or will) update to 
the final release.  You don't need to run "dnf system-upgrade" again.

Uh, again, that's the kernel version, not the OS release version
(/etc/issue or /etc/redhat-release or /etc/fedora-release). You can run
an F23 kernel on an F24 system easily (or vice-versa). You can even run
a kernel that's built from a source tarball that has no "fcXX" or "elX"
stuff at all, so while MOST of the time the kernel and the OS release
track each other, there's absolutely no guarantee that they do.

Taking my cursory look at the system-upgrade plugin, it appears that it
looks at the file I mentioned to figure out which version it currently
is and where you want it to go. I've never dug through it that closely,
but that seems to be what it does. I could be wrong (and probably am).

Re: what release am I running ?

2016-06-27 Thread jdow 
The release number is a part of the kernel name. It takes a wee bit of knowledge 
to parse it. For example mine contains "2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.x86_64" The ".el6" 
is the effective release number (Enterprise Linux). In actuality it's Scientific 
Linux SL6. The other suggestion gives me "Scientific Linux release 6.6 
(Carbon)". (It's not quite time for me to go to 6.7. I am waiting a bit until 
potential problems can be attacked with minimum affect on our work here.)

Joanne, that'll report the kernel version and such but not the
distribution release number.

Jim,

That's odd. I believe that "dnf system-upgrade" pulls this stuff from
a file called /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.json which contains stuff
such as system_releasever and target_releasever. It sounds like your
system_releasever is set to 24 in that file. If so, then system-upgrade
won't do it as it thinks you're already at that level.

You might be able to change that to "23" and rerun your command, but BE
WARNED! I've never done this and you could hose your system completely.

Is it possible you downloaded system-upgrade while you were pointed at
the rawhide repos and picked that one up instead of the production one?

If the major version is not sufficient, "cat /etc/issue.net" or "cat 
/etc/issue".

that could be either because it isnt ready (for an unobvious reason)

Joanne, that'll report the kernel version and such but not the
distribution release number.

Jim,

That's odd. I believe that "dnf system-upgrade" pulls this stuff from
a file called /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.json which contains stuff
such as system_releasever and target_releasever. It sounds like your
system_releasever is set to 24 in that file. If so, then system-upgrade
won't do it as it thinks you're already at that level.

You might be able to change that to "23" and rerun your command, but BE
WARNED! I've never done this and you could hose your system completely.

Is it possible you downloaded system-upgrade while you were pointed at
the rawhide repos and picked that one up instead of the production one?
