Hi All,
This happened to me again when I went to upgrade my
shop computer from FC40 to fc41. So I though I'd repeat
my fix here:
Note: dnf dose not use /etc/redhat-release as it release
version. It uses
/usr/share/licenses/fedora/fedora-release-common*
On my F41 system upgraded from F40, it is using /etc/redhat-release to
store its release version which for me contains Fedora release 41 (Forty
One)
and /usr/share/fedora/fedora-release-common contains nothing but a
legal txt file and a license file, there is no fedora sub-folder of
licenses.
Command "rpm -qa /*fedora-release-common/*" produces nothing.
regards,
Steve

When dnf thinks you are on the wrong release:
if after the upgrade, dnf still thinks you are on the older version,
remove the stray "fedora-release-common"
For example:
# rpm -qa \*fedora-release-common\*
fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch
fedora-release-common-40-39.noarch
# dnf remove fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch
or globally
# dnf upgrade --allowerase --releasever=[your release,
41 for example]
I don't think it's any file. It's the version of the package that matters.
