I just upgraded to 41.  But dnf still loads 39's repos.
And "rpm -qa" shows 39 on everything.
How did you upgrade?

# rpm --rebuilddb
# rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
  if anything is too new, do a
        # dnf downgrade offender(s)

Not sure why you’re doing this. It’s unnecessary and doesn’t actually catch the kind of issues that prevent upgrades.

I like to do system cleanups before hand.


# dnf update --refresh
# reboot   and repeat the above update until no updates registered

Good to do.

# remove-retired-packages    <-- optional

Probably ok

# dnf autoremove

Might end up leaving you with some missing packages, but ok.

# dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
# dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=41

Ok, this is good, you’ve downloaded all the packages for the update all you have to do is reboot but…

Note: to clean out upgrade packages and start over:
     # dnf system-upgrade clean
     # dnf clean packages

You just deleted all the files you just downloaded. A complete waste of time and bandwidth. No wonder it didn’t work.

You missed the part about doing only if you have to
start (completely) over.  I did not.


# dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade

What?  You just ran the plug-in, why are you running this?

# rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-41-primary

Unnecessary the dnf system-upgrade does this.

So it always tells me.  I never updated my directions

# dnf clean packages         <-- optional

Not doing anything, you ran it just before!

I did not do it.  I am going ot remove it from myu directions right now.


# dnf system-upgrade -v reboot --debugsolver

Will do nothing, since you deleted the packages it downloaded.

Did not do it.

You must have run some other commands since you’ve manage to replace your OS release data.

Who knows.  That is why I posted
