Ask Fedora

I have been updating my system over a few fedora releasea.
I noticed a this System is tainted: unmerged-bin message and later this dnf5: /usr/sbin cannot be merged yet, found /usr/sbin/capsh.

I havce manually cleaned up /usr/bin and /usr/sbin that had old files not owned by any RPM. Now I think I can do the merge.

What command can I run to trigger the merge to complete?
