I have Fedora 41 xfce. Do I need a clean install to get Fedora 42 xfce? I have found some instructions that may work:
System upgrade:
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
Is this safe?
Upgrading an xfce system is no different from any other system upgrade. The package dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
is no more, so skip installing it.
Occasionally, you can get package conflicts with non-fedora packages, including packages from rpmfusion. The rpmfusion conflicts are usually resolved in a week or so.
Thank you for the information.
Success installation including XFCE 4.20.

So, Robert you successfully upgraded to Fedora 42 xfce
by just using 3 commands:
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
correct?
