Re: system upgrade problems

Stan,

Thank you very much for your response... AND the information.

I guess I'll just wait and see what happens. I have seen some of these problems for several months though I haven't been tracking them.

I have been "doing" FedoraCore since it was a puppy... I can't even remember what the level was. FC7?

I'm a fairly well seasoned Systems guy and LOVE working with engineers. I make my FC systems look like "production" systems and then I do "production" kinds of things and report problems via bugzilla.redhat.com. I suppose there's a way to see when I started reporting. My only desire is to be of assistance to and further the "cause" of Fedora Core.

I upgrade this system at least once a day... all the while trying to find and write up the problems I find or fall into.


Thanks again for your help,

George...

In my past experience, this is pretty typical for rawhide, where there
is a lot of change because everything is being upgraded for the new
release.  That means packages dependent on the previous version of
another package are often the cause of blockage for other packages.

You could try --best --allowerasing options to dnf, but it might remove
things you care about.  The time to take care of this is when the
release goes beta, or when it becomes a release.

If you don't want this kind of update experience, you need to stop
running rawhide. Or, accept that some updates won't happen.  It won't
really change your ability to work, you'll just be using a slightly
earlier version of packages, until inconsistencies are ironed out.
