Description of problem: Attempting to upgrade this system. First try revealed errors with "nut" and "gnutls" so I reran the command adding --exclude='nut-*' and --exclude='gnutls*'. This retry listed several other packages with problems. Second try, adding --exclude='kdevelop*' and --exclude='python*'. This resulted in the "protected packages" message. It's clear that there's a bug here or (probably) I don't understand dnf as well as I thought. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-4.2.21-1.fc33.noarch
This is a rawhide system, so someone is certainly going to tell you that you should post this on the test list instead. So there, I just did it. :-)
It is not unusual for rawhide to have periods of time where upgrades of certain packages have issues because that's where development is happening. I know there are two very large updates in progress, so you're likely hitting an issue with one or both of those. I see a reference to python3.9 in there, so very likely. Give it a few days to settle down and try again. That's quite the combination of dnf options you've put together, I'm not sure how well they all work together.
Maybe just try "--skip-broken" for now and if that doesn't work, try later. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
