Hi,
I am awaiting 1.73.0 as it should ship with support for my cloud service. Is there a schedule for when 1.73.0 will hit fedora?
Thanks!

You could follow progress through the Recent Activity on packages.fedoraproject.org, or the Bugzilla ticket.

Rclone 1.73.0 was released less than 24h ago.

Rclone is written in Go and compiles to a single static binary. If you are in a hurry, you can always just download the binary they publish and put it somewhere on your $PATH.

Thanks, I removed the current version of rclone with dnf rm and installed the static binary via downloaded rpm.

That is another way to do it. However, note that this has cut you off from future automatic package updates from Fedora and you are now responsible for downloading newer RPMs and installing them manually.

The alternative would have been to place the rclone binary in, say, ~/.local/bin, adding this directory to the beginning of your path, and then removing rclone from it again when you notice an updated Fedora package.

You can now get 1.73.0 from the testing repos:

Fedora 43: sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2026-511b019e58

Fedora 42: sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2026-8615ba85dc

If you already did a dnf remove, then replace upgrade with install rclone in those commands.
