In the bugzilla you wrote:
How reproducible:
Always when I update.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open terminal.
2. sudo dnf update -y
3. Reboot.
How many times have you attempted the update?
I ask since I've looked over the list of packages updated and it seems I have all of those which are
related to plasma and have no troubles. With multiple systems having been updated.
Did you also happen to try a different user to see if they had similar issues?
This is the third time I tried and I updated using root.
Have you considered trying to narrow down which package may be responsible?
Picking packages to upgrade first which are least likely to be responsible?
Packages such as ModemManager*, NetworkManager*, abrt*, ghostscript*?
It may be helpful if the problem can't be duplicated by others.

The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions.
In F32 I have found that a reboot instruction in Plasma will often not complete after a kernel or nvidia update. Now I use Ctrl/Alt/f2, login and reboot.
That does happen from time to time, depending on what is upgraded.
Another option is to just issue a reboot from the command line.
sudo systemctl reboot
I have found the culprits for the breakages:
kwayland-server
kf5-plasma
kwayland-server update produces the same original problem in my bug.
kf5-plasma however breaks the login screen.
Now the question is whether I can run "dnf update" excluding these two
packages ONLY for this particular update ?
Also what should I do with the bug I already filed ?
Should I close it or should I add information to the bug ?
You could update using
dnf --exclude=kwayland-server,kf5-plasma update
This may exclude other packages with dependencies.
And, you should add to the bugzilla since the problem still exists for you.
