Hi,
    I have just done a sudo dnf upgrade on F34 which I think upgraded 1311 packages. After the update finished I rebooted F34 and then ran discovery and it was still telling me there was 628 MB of F34 Platform updates to put on, which I did put on. Why is dnf not installing all updates that are available? Is there a configuration that needs to be done to alleviate this that is not done in an "out of the box" install, or, is this telling me that we shouldn't be doing updates with dnf we should be using Discovery instead?


I've not looked at what goes on during the upgrade process. That is going from a previous release of Fedora to a later version of
Fedora.  I suspect that the upgrade process just compares what you have on your system with what packages are
available in the fedora.repo (which doesn't change) and doesn't look at the fedora-updates.repo since looking in both
places and keeping track of what package should be upgraded from which repo would be much more work.  Especially in
the case of where an update of some packages may change dependencies or pull in packages not used previously.

system-update uses all the repos you have enabled, including the updates repo.  After system-update, you should be fully up-to-date.
What is system-update, is that functionality provided by another dnf plugin?


That would be the command you'd use when upgrading to the next version Fedora when it becomes
available.

Yes, it is a dnf plugin.  "sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade"

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/dnf-system-upgrade/ may be helpful when time
to upgrade.
