Line cut off in terminal - how to obtain the missing part?

Ask Fedora
1

Hi, I was running updates today and one of them produced the following warning:

cut-off-line-in terminal-01
cut-off-line-in terminal-01980×127 16.2 KB

But as the line is cut off, I don’t know what am I supposed to run. I tried to solve it with copy/pasting the lines into the text editor, but the outcome was the same:

cut-off-line-in terminal-02
cut-off-line-in terminal-02958×174 13 KB

Question 1: Is there a way for me to find out what command it wanted me to run? I already rebooted.
Question 2: Is there a way to prevent this situation from happening in the future? (other than buying a much bigger screen :wink:

Thank you

I think you can probably check something in /var/log/dnf5*.

However, since this is a warning about the service file being changed, a reboot would have loaded the new file anyway, so there’s nothing to worry about. The end of that sentence was probably Run systemctl daemon-reload to reload configuration or something to that effect.
