Unsupported lua script when running rpm-ostree upgrade

Ask Fedora
1

Trying to rpm-ostree upgrade and receiving “error: Executing %transfiletriggerin for filesystem: Package ‘filesystem’ has (currently) unsupported script in ‘%transfiletriggerin’” Have tried to rebase to prior version as well as clear cache but receive the same results.

Any suggestions to avoid doing a fresh install?

Your system is really old at this point, so it’s likely that updating directly to the latest version will fail for all sorts of reasons. You should re-enable Zincati and let it update to the latest release. If you don’t want auto updates, you can then disable Zincati again.

Enabled Zincati updating and was successful! Thank you very much for your assistance.
