DNF Upgrade Cleanup Dangling Symlinks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
    I got the message below when I ran sudo DNF Upgrade. Why are these messages appearing when I ran "sudo symlinks -r -d /" a couple of days ago? After getting the messages I ran "sudo symlinks -r / | grep -i dangling" again and it reported dangling symlinks in the ".build-id" folder again, what I didn't check was whether or not those dangling symlinks were what was shown in the DNF messages. The messages I've shown below are similar messages to what I got, not the actual messages, as I made a mistake and issued another command in the Konsole tab the messages were in, which caused Konsole to remove the messages from its display history. I think the package being cleanup up which produced the messages was binutils, but I can't be sure.

[29/48] Removing webkitgtk6.0-0:2.46.3-1.fc41.x86_64                                                                                              100% | 545.0   B/s |  90.0   B |  00m00s
>>> [RPM] file /usr/lib/.build-id/c7/b48abe760b785ae0bb17cbc014e4cd1f0cca07: remove failed: No such file or directory
>>> [RPM] file /usr/lib/.build-id/68/87fa9a14953d0a201d994f4b5445f4f9cc8a76: remove failed: No such file or directory

    The other question I have on this is are the DNF messages "real" messages or are they like the failure messages when attempting to update properties in KDE Destop icons that a links to locations owned by root, in that the DNF cleanup process attempted to delete the file/folder the symlink was pointing to which failed and it reported the failure against the symlink not again what it was actually trying to delete?

regards,
Steve
