what -xfeatu is? Is it an option to apply to dnf the remove command.
Ok, so I must ommit the opencv-xfeatures2d-4.5.3-7.fc33.x86_64 file
I’ve omitted opencv-xfeatures2d-4.5.3-7.fc33.x86_64 package and still getting the same error message

I think the way to fix that is to try those one at a time and add the --noautoremove to the dnf remove command.
after deleting one by one, dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=35 command produced this output (I’m pasting the las part of the summary):

That is fewer problems than previously, but it does suggest adding --best --allowerasing to the download command for those 3 packages. Those options may remove one of the packages from the list.
It is interesting that there are 2 libvmaf packages there, one with version 2.1.1 and one version 1.5.1

Good night, thanks for help today.
I suggested before and will repeat.
Those 3rd party repos likely should be disabled while upgrading from fedora 33. Once the upgrade is complete then if you choose they could be enabled and needed software upgraded.
Personally I also disable (permanently) fedora-modular and updates-modular.
You can also always step back and upgrade to F34 as a single step instead of F35 as 2 steps.
That post does not show the progress beyond the repo metadata downloads.
Another consideration, if not already done would be that you likely should clean out the cache for the download. That can be done with dnf system-upgrade clean all, following which the next download would only get the packages for the system as it is at that moment, including only those packages for currently enabled repos.
Hi Again,
when executing dnf after deleting each file and some other that appeared as they required another file which was not able to download them , I was able to run dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=34 but in the transactions test I got an error concerning another file that conflicts

A messagge suggested me to use --skip-broken which I did and got to the point which lead me to create this post. Comand advise me that will only download, and perform transaction and test check but no intstalling. This was the cause I wrote this post.
I still got the error message about a flie that belongs is used by the shell. This is the output after using dnf system-upgrade download --skip-broken --releasever=34

Anything like this is probably not required and if so then it should be removed for later reinstall if needed.
The command rpm -q --whatrequires libmysofa on F37 returns no requirement for that package.
I am in the process of installing an F33 VM to see what it shows about the package that is giving you the error.
Do you get the same error if you run
dnf system-upgrade download --releasever 34 --best --allowerasing ?

No errors? go for it.
I just installed F33 on a VM, and after a full upgrade to the latest I tried to run the system-upgrade. That initially errored with the iptables package, even though it was a plain and clean install. Once I removed that one package the download for F34 worked.
Morning!,
Yesterday I was dnf system-upgrade download --best --allowerasing --releasever=34: after typing Y in the prompt, it skips all files as all of them have been downloaded already it was peforming the transaction check then a 5 hour power outage happened.
I piped dnf system-upgrade download --best --allowerasing --releasever=34 to an text file through the tee command. Today’s morning I check If the text file exists I actually found it and last 5 line that had been recoreded were these.
Running transaction check
Transaction check succeeded.

So, It performed the transaction check and test, but didn’t installed. What do I’m missing? Sorry for my naiveness.
Enjoy your day,
By the way, I’m running the sudo dnf system-upgrade download --best --allowerasing --releasever=34 command again this morning. I’ll update you once it finishs running.
It finished. I got this

I get this same message even using the --noautoremove option.
You might try adding the suggested --skip-broken option to that command line.
On F37 the libmysofa package is not installed, and on F34 (clean install of F33 then upgraded to F34) it shows this.

Note that libmysofa is not installed with a clean install of F33 and upgrade to F34.
I suspect that the --skip-broken may assist. I also suspect it is a hold-over from an earlier version of fedora since libmysofa-libs is not even part of F33 (though it was apparently installed on your system).
I even went back as far as an F31 VM, clean install and upgraded, and see this

The libmysofa-libs-1.2.1-1.git8423749.fc33.x86_64 package does not show with any version on either F31, F33, or F34 as coming from a fedora repo. Possibly it came from another repo or possibly it was a koji package, but try the --skip-broken and see what the result may be.
Another alternative may be to try using rpm to remove that libmysofa-libs package since it does not have the same dependencies requirements as dnf.
sudo rpm -e --justdb --nodeps libmysofa-libs-1.2.1-1.git8423749.fc33.x86_64 may work to remove that package from the database while leaving the files alone and not totally break things.

Complete!
Transaction saved to /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade/system-upgrade-transaction.json.
Download complete! Use 'dnf system-upgrade reboot' to start the upgrade.
To remove cached metadata and transaction use 'dnf system-upgrade clean'
The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction.
You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.
I guess it worked. I’ll rebot tomorrow’s morning.
Thanks for your help.
Good night.
Best!
