Where does the "$releasever" come from?  how can
I reproduce it from the command line?  (It is different
than /etc/redhat-release.)

I believe that, unless you override it on the command line, it takes the release version of the "fedora-release-common" package.

I once had an issue where an interrupted upgrade left two versions of that package and I had to remove the older one before dnf would use the right release.


That got rid of the 39 in dnf.  Thank you!

But I still can do a "dnf upgrade"


# rpm -qa \*fedora-release-common\*
fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch
fedora-release-common-40-39.noarch
