I'm getting to the point where I never want to use the graphical
software update facility, since it is ALWAYS wrong.
I just logged in, pulled up software update, and knowing that it
routinely messes up and says that there is nothing to update, I asked
it to recheck for updates. It came back again with no updates.
Then (since I'm developing a deep distrust of software update), I did a
CLI dnf update. There were 27 updates pending. Clearly, software
update is broken.
Its possible that it is configured out-of-the-box wrong. Is there
anything that I can set to make it actually work, or should I just stop
using it because it is too broken to fix?
Example where software update has totally failed:
[prodadm@production ~]$ sudo dnf update
[sudo] password for prodadm:
