Some 3rd party software built from sources links to Fedora libraries.   R
libraries are an example that has surprised some users when libraries go
missing after upgrades.

Some F38 packages where there have been no changes upstream and
that work in F39 may stay at F38 for a while, but there are also orphaned
packages that are no longer needed in F39.   Some copr repositories may
not yet be fully updated for F39 and still need F38 packages.  Jeffery Walton's post gives a way to clean out F38 packages that have either been replaced by F39 versions or are no longer needed, but it won't protect you if there are 3rd
party binaries that link against 38 libraries.

Sound like it.  Maybe I just jumped the gun.

Did a fresh `dnf upgrade`.  Everything is coming up
fc39 now.

Next time I will wait a week before upgrading!
