again and said "No core libraries or services have been updated since
boot-up. Reboot should not be necessary".
When I issue the command immediately after the 2nd command
above, sudo dnf upgrade, It loaded all the repositories and then said
there were 193 packages to upgrade and 195 packages to replace.
Given that there were updates to put on why did the first
command not put the updates on and then display whether or not as a
result a restart was required and for which packages?
Your first command was telling dnf to upgrade a package called "needs-
restarting". You can only give dnf one command at a time.
Nothing to do with dnf5. That's how it's always worked.
Does this mean that with the tracer addin no longer working there is no
way to get the equivalent functionality with dnf at update time?
How did you do this before? The only difference between dnf4 and dnf5
is that dnf4 will actually tell you that there's no package called
"needs-restarting" where dnf5 just says there's nothing to do. You also
showed that the "needs-restarting" command is also working, so there's
no issue here.
