Ah, it probably is an issue with the repository:

Can anyone confirm? I used vscode-docs/docs/setup/linux.md at e0b395019dd4a064ed5445daebc639e108356b19 · microsoft/vscode-docs · GitHub to install it.

It works fine for me, try a different routing path:

@vgaetera, thanks for the advice — I’ll use torsocks in the future, to diagnose connection failures. However, it doesn’t seem to work for this:

[12/15] code-insiders-0:1.96.0-1731305244.el8.x86_64                                                                  47% [=========         ] |   0.0   B/s |  64.7 MiB | -01d01h

It also appears to cause problems with other repositories:

Try this way:

sudo dnf swap libcurl-minimal libcurl
sudo dnf clean all

Unfortunately, @vgaetera, it appears that I’m using libcurl already:

It continues to fail (even with --allowerasing) too:

To continue troubleshooting, check the output:

rpm -q -a "*curl*"
rpm -V -a "*curl*"
type curl
curl -V

	libcurl.so.4 => /lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007fb190916000)

I’m temporarily out of ideas other than using strace or inspecting the DNF5 source code to understand which specific library calls it uses.

I guess it would be best to open an issue upstream, especially if the problem is reproducible and reoccurs on the next update:

@vgaetera, same here:

RokeJulianLockhart@sayw4i:~$ ldd $(readlink -f $(type -P dnf)) | grep -e curl
        libcurl.so.4 => /lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007fb75c454000)

Of course, it now miraculously works:

Complete!

I presume because you helpfully allowed me to bypass dnf to download that problematic update. Thank you. A shame that despite all your work, we weren’t able to diagnose the fault… feels like I’ve wasted your effort.

No problem, it helped me hone my troubleshooting skills and now we know what to do if a similar problem suddenly reappears.
