Trying to upgrade to the latest release (43) and the install will not download through both the gui option or the terminal option. Below is a screenshot of the message that’s displayed when trying to do the upgrade.
any help would be appreciated.
The openrazer packages require an older version of python than is included in f43.
Either remove those packages or exclude them from the upgrade or allowerasing by dnf when doing the upgrade.
The newer version of wine-core.x86_64 conflicts with wine-core.i686
What I did was simply remove wine-core.i686 and upgrades were possible.

what would be the best way to exclude the older version of python and openrazer?
I tried adding it to the dnf file using:
excludepkgs=openrazer-daemon-3.11.0-1.1.noarch
excludepkgs=python3-openrazer-3.11.0-1.1.noarch
excludepkgs=python3-3.13.9-1.fc42.x86_64
but it didn’t seem to work and still hangs up the download. Thanks
The openrazer packages are the issue. F43 upgrades python to 3.14 so you should not exclude python. The openrazer packages are from a 3rd party source and I found this.
You probably should remove openrazer, do the upgrade, then reinstall openrazer if it allows. You may not be able to reinstall openrazer if it is truly dependent upon python 3.13.
I do not use excludes in the dnf.conf file, but instead use the command line since that is a one time use while the conf file is a (quasi-)‘permanent’ config.

FYI: You must have the new python if you want the new fedora.
Many tools that are critical to running Fedora mandate the new python.
