I ran 'dnf upgrade' this morning and got a bunch of proposed upgrades,
one of which failed due to a missing public key (it was Chrome). See
separate thread.

The odd thing is that *none* of the upgrades applied, even things
completely unrelated to Chrome. When I re-ran the upgrade and added '--
exclude google-chrome-stable', then it all worked.

This looks like a regression. IIRC in the past dnf would have installed
everything that didn't depend on the failing item. Am I mistaken?

Any error in the checking will abort the entire transaction. Otherwise, it would have to go back and redo all the dependency checking again.


Yes, the same thing happens with packages failing because of file conflicts with versions already installed. If I am interpreting the dnf output correctly, it seems to me that it is treating, in this case, the upgrade, as a single transaction, hence if there is an error, the transaction has failed, hence nothing it done.
