I'd recommand doing one version upgrade at a time.
You are suppose to be able to upgrade 2 versions, but I once had it fail
and system was not easily fixable, so just did a clean install that was a
pain to get back to the state of the system.
I just updated two machines from fc31 to fc32 using dnf with no
problem.
I generally create a list of packages installed, so If I want to do a clean
install, and then make the new system have a similar setup instead of
have to manually do it.
#!/usr/bin/bash
rpm --qf "%{NAME}.%{ARCH}\n" -qa | sort | grep -v gpg-pubkey >
installed_pkgs`date +%F`.txt
Then can pipe that into a dnf install. Sometime have to remove some
lines for packages that no longer exist or have been replaced.
Good Luck.
