By pure fluke I ran "dnf check-update --refresh" not as root and got: RuntimeError: C++ std::exception: Failed to open backup database: /var/lib/dnf/history/history-2015-04-01.sqlite Surprising in that I have run this command not as root before and it didn't fail, but the file was owned root:root on 0600 so the failure is not a surprise. The file being in /var I took the view that it is ephemeral and so deleted it. Now as root I get proper behaviour, and indeed as not root I get proper behaviour. I am now upgrading all my Fedora Rawhide machines. :-) -- Russel. =========================================== Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk
