dnfdragora not making all updates available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Everyone:

The reform of dnfdragora to put all available updates into groups is not
updating everything, and not updating many things it used to update
without fail.

The only reliable thing my system will update, are applications and
various desktop relevant things. And not all applications, either.

Basically, if it is not in a group, dnfdragora will not update it and I
have to fall back on the traditional Software Management application to
do these updates.

The following packages typically fail of update and even of selection on
dnfdragora:

* The kernel and related packages.

* Browsers other than Firefox.

* Application packages from repositories foreign to the Fedora
community, such as "bunkus.org" (mkvtoolsnix), google (for chrome), and
Adobe Systems Incorporated.

* System packages that run background processes that normally load
themselves at startup and stay resident.

I've checked for all possible settings I can make to solve this problem.
No joy.

I've tried refreshing metadata (which, by the way, takes fifteen minutes
every time). No joy.

I tried selecting "not showing the groups." No joy.

Suggestions?

Have any of you noticed the same issue?

My desktop is KDE.

"Check for updates" counts all packages that need an update. But again:
if they're not in a group, they're not available for a selection.

(Note: if you're going to tell me to report this as a bug, I need to
know exactly where and how. I've filed bugs in the wrong place and they
get no action.)
