following along here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNF_system_upgrade already ran: $ sudo dnf upgrade --refresh and when running: $ sudo dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=30 i get a pile of diagnostics, including (at the very bottom): Error: Problem: problem with installed package yum-3.4.3-518.fc29.noarch - package dnf-yum-4.1.0-1.fc30.noarch conflicts with yum provided by yum-3.4.3-521.fc30.noarch - problem with installed package dnf-yum-4.0.9-2.fc29.noarch - yum-3.4.3-518.fc29.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository - dnf-yum-4.0.9-2.fc29.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) now, i haven't used yum for quite some time, i stick with dnf, and it seems that: 1) yum is required only by yum-utils 2) yum-utils is required by nothing on my current system so it *seems* that i have no apparent for either yum or yum-utils. is this a safe assumption? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
