Advice required… I have four installations of Rawhide. Three of them seem fine, consistent, and as expected: all packages except the kernel installed once and up to date – I keep multiple kernels for fairly obvious reasons.
However one machine has a large number of not fully upgraded packages. The older package is emboldened by dnf and marked @rawhide. The newer package is not emboldened and is marked @System. dnf seems entirely happy that this is a consistent situation with no further action required. Personally I would suggest that dnf is, well, wrong. As an example: ImageMagick.x86_64 6.9.3.0- 4.fc26 @rawhide ImageMagick.x86_64 6.9.3.0- 5.fc26 @System Even on the consistent systems some installed only once from the rawhide repository are marked @System, I am not sure why, I would have thought it should be marked @rawhide. I could manually remove all the old @rawhide packages leaving the up- to-date @System packages, but this seems wrong on so many fronts. Sufficiently many that I thought I would become a supplicant here seeking advice. I am hoping that someone will show up my ignorance of the sophistication of dnf and tell me the one liner that allows dnf to fix everything. My fear is that dnf has just ###### things up and is incapable of sorting it out. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
