Hi,
Doing a sudo dnf upgrade I got the following failure.Anyone else seeing this?

Running trigger-post-uninstall scriptlet: systemd-0:256.9-2.fc41.x86_64
Running trigger-install scriptlet: systemd-0:256.9-2.fc41.x86_641.x86_64
Finished trigger-install scriptlet: systemd-0:256.9-2.fc41.x86_64
Scriptlet output:obs: Failed to enqueue some jobs, see logs for details: Invalid argument
Failed to start jobs: Failed to enqueue some jobs, see logs for details: Invalid argument

I have also seen that. It says “see logs for details” but there were no further details in any of the logs, neither the dnf5 logs nor journal. Also it is not clear exactly which trigger script was involved.

Here to ask the same question.
Hopefully this is benign…

Yes, it’s benign. The jobs that systemd scriptlets start are to reload configuration and restart. They matter for live upgrades without a reboot, but if they fail to run, this only makes the difference until the next reboot.

Edit: Yes, we should figure out why this happens and fix it. It’s probably some unexpected incompatibility between systemd versions. But afaik, nobody looked into this yet.
