Can anyone shed any light on why the install may have failed and what I need to do to work around it? I'm hoping I don't have to run a 'sudo dnf clean all' and then a 'sudo dnf system-upgrade --refresh --releasever=28 --allowerasing --skip-broken' to download all the packages again.I wonder if the --skip-broken is a problem. Can you solve that before doing the upgrade? I think the packages should still be downloaded. Check in /var/lib/dnf/system-upgradeAll the packages were still downloaded.I issued that command and all it did was tell me there were 6 boots that2). Where can I find the logs that would contain the error message so I can read what it said, given that /var/log/boot.log and /var/log/dnf.log both don't contain the message?Try "dnf system-upgrade log".appeared to have upgrade logs, going right back to the upgrade I did ofF23 to F24, but the names it listed were meaningless to me and it didn't provide any path references to where I might find the logs to be able tosearch them. Following your suggestion I ran a sudo dnf upgrade which produced all the conflict messages that I worked around by adding --allowerasing and --skip-broken, but this time dnf said to try --best and --allowerasing, which I did and that installed all the package updates that caused the conflicts. Having done this I was able to complete the upgrade to F28, but now I have big problems. Under F28 my USB network device doesn't work because dkms can't compile the driver for it, and, either because of this failure or a compile failure the drivers for my mouse haven't been installed by dkms either.Booting into the latest F27 kernel I have installed which is 4.17.3-100,where both drivers have previously successfully compiled and installed (which is how I'm able to send this email), the mouse drivers still compile but the usb device driver fails to compile. Both with the F28 kernel, being 4.17.3-200, and the F27 kernel I mentioned, the compile fails with stdarg.h not found, so I'm now confused about what the F28upgrade has done. The F28 upgrade should not have updated the F27 kernelsource that was already installed and hence there should not be any barriers to compiling the driver against the F27 kernel when under F27 it did compile.Uhm, did you get the libstdc++-devel RPM installed? It provides the stdarg.h file, specifically: /usr/include/c++/8/tr1/stdarg.h Checking an old F26 VM I have, the equivalent file is: /usr/include/c++/7/tr1/stdarg.h I believe the C compiler will find it if it's installed. Even if it does appear to be installed, a "dnf reinstall libstdc++-devel" should clean up any cruft your messed-up install may have left.I'll check this out, thankyou. The issue is caused because /usr/src/kernels/4.17.3-100.fc27.x86_64/include/linux/kernel.h (this is the location when compiling for the F27 kernel) has the following include statements, and it is the first one that causes the problem:#ifndef _LINUX_KERNEL_H #define _LINUX_KERNEL_H #include <stdarg.h> #include <linux/linkage.h> #include <linux/stddef.h> #include <linux/types.h> #include <linux/compiler.h> #include <linux/bitops.h> #include <linux/log2.h> #include <linux/typecheck.h> #include <linux/printk.h> #include <linux/build_bug.h> #include <asm/byteorder.h> #include <uapi/linux/kernel.h> regards, Steve
I've checked things out on this front and among others packages clang5.0-libs, gcc and libstdc++-devel which are all already installed have stdarg.h in their various folder structures under their include folder, hence:
1). What do I need to do to get stdarg.h resolved from the correct package for any compile done on the system at any time?
2). Why did F28 not add the appropriate folder into the include path when the packages were upgraded, which seems to have happened when I upgraded to F27?
regards, Steve
