Went through the usual steps, finally reached

$ sudo dnf5 offline reboot
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:
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

Note 2:
This is a KVM image and it was upgraded this way many times without any
problem before.
Looking slowly though the boot messages I saw:
2026-05-19T11:50:10+10:00 e4.eyal.emu.id.au systemd-system-update-generator[445]:
Offline system update overridden by runlevel "5" on the kernel command line
This is not an option in my /etc/default/grub. I used it once from the grub
boot menu and it seems that it remembered it for many months and updates!
The upgrade is going now.
Thanks everyone.
