How can I clear these wine packages to allow for a clean Fed 43 install?

You can remove the conflicting Wine packages with:

sudo dnf remove wine\* wine-core\*

Then try the upgrade again — that should clear the conflicts and let Fedora 43 install cleanly.

It’s a known problem. You can either try the above workaround or wait a bit for Wine package to be fixed.

Thank you both. I was able to remove wine and now the system is installing Fed 43. 30% complete…
Thanks for your Support / Interest / Help!!!

It seems to be okay. The reboot was good and it was a very smooth transition. Things were working as before the install !

Again thanks,
