Dnf cores when updating from 30 to 31

, ,

I had just installed Fedora 30 a few mins ago. Logged onto the system and things seem to be running.
I decided to upgrade the Fedora 31 right away and did the usual upgrade package checks after installing 30. Then tried to upgrade to 31 by:
dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=31

dnf hangs and cores when processing Visual Code:

I tried removing Code and still got the same error.

Any idea what could be going on here?

Try this:
Disable the Visual Studio Code repository and run the upgrade again

What happened?

Might be:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1811234 ?

you might try sudo dnf module reset ripgrep
then do the upgrade

Update: worked into the night and was able to upgrade from 30 to 31! Finally.
I am writing this on an old laptop running Fedora 31!!!
Thanks @twohot and @grumpey!

So a couple of observations

@grumpey: I just ended up removing ripgrep and that seemed to have done the trick.

@twohot: I didnt disable the repo, but just removed the package twice. Wish i had seen your response while I was tryging to fix the upgrade. I would tried ignoring the repo. After the second removal of Code and during the second upgrade attempt, when dnf hit Visual Studio, the cpu pegged for a second or two, but this time around dnf proceeded and didnt core.
