Fedora Workstation 31 I was doing a dnf upgrade (which I aborted), when I got the message: Removing dependent packages: kmod-nvidia-5.4.18-200.fc31.x86_64 x86_64 3:440.59-1.fc31 @@commandline 30 M I assume this package is dependent on kernel 5.4 and the dnf upgrade includes kernel 5.5.

So, my questions are: 1. Should I remove the installed nvidia packages and replace them with the meta-package? 2. Does the 'dnf list' imply that the nvidia packages for kernel 5.5 are not ready yet? 3. I don't want to upgrade the kernel until the nvidia package is available. What's the best way to monitor that?
