Dnf system-upgrade fails from F39->F40 KDE Spin

boredsquirrel · July 13, 2024, 9:51pm

Again like many I have issues upgrading a F39 install to F40.

I have to use traditional Fedora on that PC as it is a dualboot with Windows. While Kinoite had no issues at all, system upgrades on traditional Fedora dont work well at all and are often broken for me.

Here I get the issue that the upgrade would remove many packages and one of them seems protected. Trying to remove it, prompts me to remove the entire plasma desktop.

Removed kinoite

barryascott · July 14, 2024, 7:18am

What is the output of the dnf with the skip broken?
I suspect there is a conflict that is triggering the cascade of failures.
Can you also set the locale to en_us so the messages are in english?

jandemus · July 14, 2024, 7:47am

Maybe I am totally wrong but can it be your F39 is using Plasma 5 and while doing the upgrade to F40 you’re also upgrading to Plasma 6? Can that be the reason Plasma is completely deleted?

vekruse · July 14, 2024, 9:51am

I would suggest to remove the file /etc/dnf/protected.d/setup.conf and see what happens.

The problem is that when dnf reports that a protected package would be removed, it would prevent the list of to-be removed packages to be shown. And to find out what is going on, we would need that list.

As the package setup is required by a lot of other packages, it would never be removed anyway without removing all the other packages as well.

That setting was already used.

barryascott · July 14, 2024, 10:17am

Doh. I meant without --skip-broken

grumpey · July 14, 2024, 10:30am

can you show:
sudo dnf repolist
sudo dnf list installed passwd shadow-utils

boredsquirrel · July 14, 2024, 11:44am

Yes thats true. And it should not be a problem. I suppose the packages may need to be unprotected but the metapackage plasma-desktop is removed @barryascott among others.

Another case where the dnf system upgrade is completely broken I guess…

Doing a normal dnf upgrade pulls down f39 packages with tons of errors, while I already have some f40 packages installed.

grumpey · July 14, 2024, 11:56am

That looks like a partial upgrade.
you may want to do:
sudo dnf distro-sync
sudo dnf remove --duplicates

And see if that cleans it up.

boredsquirrel · July 14, 2024, 12:01pm

distro sync gives me tons of dependency errors where Plasma 5 packages cannot be installed because they depend on unavailable outdated dependencies.

Is there no way to just rebase to the next vanilla OS??..

Adding these args reduces the issue to the setup package.

Error: 
 Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: setup, systemd, systemd-udev
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)

This looks like the repos are still old

Added dnf

boredsquirrel · July 14, 2024, 12:07pm

Doing the upgrade, normally I would use --allowerasing to just remove outdated packages, but this seems to not do anything the output is the same. Instead it says I should use --skip-broken which sounds dangerous on a system upgrade as it may lead to outdated packages.

(Updated the first code block)

A lot of those packages were retired during F39/40.

can you manually remove the duplicate shadow-utils package with rpm?
rpm -e --justdb --nodeps shadow-utils-4.15.1-2.fc40.x86_64

And then do the distrosync?

thanks

When upgrading fedora you have to bring it more or less back to an standard setup.
If you install packages where since F39 are orphaned you can really not generalize and say that “traditional Fedora don’t work well at all”

Thanks, that worked. Still with allowerasing distrosync I get the issue with the setup package

boredsquirrel · July 14, 2024, 12:41pm

But why doesnt --allowerasing just remove them? I didnt install these packages manually.

Also there are some strange groups like passwd and wget

ilikelinux · July 14, 2024, 12:46pm

I think that is what @grumpey tries to help you with? Two versions for one package, seeing from your errors you posted above.
