I’m trying to upgrade a machine from fedora 37 to fedora 38 and ran into the following error

image1210×391 20.6 KB

Here is the steps that I did:

  1. sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
  2. restart computer
  3. sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
  4. sudo dnf system-upgrade --releasever=38 --skip-broken --allowerasing download

I thought the “–skip-broken and --allowerasing” would bypass those packages. Any thoughts?

There is an error in the repo name.
rpmfusionfree and rpmfusionfree-updates do not exist.
That should be rpmfusion-free in both cases.
Please check the content of the /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmfusion-free.repo and /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmfusion-free-updates.repo files to verify the proper repo name is listed.

You should be able to run dnf repolist and see the currently enabled list of repos on your system.
I have

# dnf repolist

and yours should be similar but for F37. Everyone of those errors shows the invalid repo name.
