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?

TIA

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.

The update lists some removals:

Note 2:
     This is a KVM image and it was upgraded this way many times without any 
problem before.



More info:

Reading man systemd.offline-updates points to:

$ ls -l /system-update
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 May 19 11:48 /system-update -> 
/usr/lib/sysimage/libdnf5/offline

$ ls -l /etc/system-update

Maybe adding the /etc/ link will help? I doubt it.
