As I say, it doesn't happen to me, but looking back at the bug history it appears to be related to GDM and/or Packagekit. I don't use either of those (I guess packagekit is running but I never touch it, nor do I use GUI updaters). If you always use dnf directly, you might consider removing PackageKit as a test. poc -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
