Went through the usual steps, finally reached

and the system rebooted directly into the usual f42 login, no indication of
upgrade anywhere in the logs.
$ sudo dnf5 offline status
An offline transaction was initiated by the following command:
dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=44 -- setopt=keepcache=1
--allowerasing --best
Run `dnf5 offline reboot` to reboot and perform the offline transaction.
So it knows...
Repeating the system-upgrade command says it is already queued, but will now be
replaced. Same failure to upgrade.
Should I see something in the grub menu? There is nothing new in /boot at all.
What should I looks at?
Nothing changes in the grub menu. It just changes the boot target or enables a
service. I'm not sure of the details.
In the past I saw a target in the system log.
Reached target system-update-pre.target
I do not see it now and do not see such a unit listed. However I do have this
file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 551 Mar 13 11:00
/usr/lib/systemd/system/system-update-pre.target
Note 1:
First time through there was an error
Transaction failed: Rpm transaction failed.
- file /usr/lib64/libkdnssd.so.1.0.0 from install of
kdelibs3-3.5.10-135.fc44.x86_64 conflicts with file from package kdnssd-
avahi-0.1.3-0.44.20080116svn.fc40.x86_64
so, following 'net comments that kdnssd-avahi is no more, I:
$ sudo dnf remove kdnssd-avahi
Ended removing kdnssd-avahi.
I tested again after this.
The update lists some removals:
Removing dependent packages:
javascriptcoregtk4.0 x86_64 2.47.2-3.fc42 fedora 28.8 MiB
kdelibs-webkit x86_64 6:4.14.38-47.fc42 fedora 191.9
KiB
python3-parameterized noarch 0.9.0-11.fc42 fedora 197.6 KiB
python3-remoto noarch 1.2.1-11.fc41 fedora 119.8 KiB
python3-toml noarch 0.10.2-21.fc42 fedora 128.5 KiB
scala noarch 2.13.12-7.fc40 fedora 9.5 MiB
webkit2gtk4.0 x86_64 2.47.2-3.fc42 fedora 80.6 MiB
Did you do this removal and then run the update again?
This removal is listed on the dnf actions list, not my doing, Probably from the
'--allowerasing --best'.
Note 2:
This is a KVM image and it was upgraded this way many times without any
problem before.
You have a couple of really old packages which are now interfering with the
update.
Only two packages are old (fc40 and fc41), not 'really old' in my world.
I am not sure if a manual remove will be OK so I leave it to dnf to decide.
