Duplicate packages (other than a handful that are intentionally allowed
to be parallel-installed, like kernel) are usually an indication that
the upgrade did not fully complete successfully :/ Can you look at the
journal from the upgrade boot and see if it looks like it finished in
an orderly fashion or maybe just died or crashed or something?

I did.  Everything seems just fine.

The big bug-a-boo was two systemd's.  One for 39 and one
for 41.  The standard "dnf upgrade" would not ever run
because of the warning about it altering systemd.

I got around it with
    # dnf reinstall systemd --releasever=41 --allowerasing
Love the allowerasing flag!

Also, I'm confusing how you had a 'duplicate of 41' for fedora-release-
common (as you say above), but your `rpm -qa | grep fc41 | grep -v fc39
| wc -l` check shows 0?

That means I found no fc41 files

I have since upgrade to 40.  It looks like every single 40 rpm
also has a 39 rpm.

I had to get rid of fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch before
dnf though I was on 40 and not 39.  I also had fix duplicate
systemd's.  Then
    # dnf upgrade --allowerasing
removed most of the 39 rpm's.

Those that remained, I am slowly doing
    # dnf reinstall xxx --allowerasing

I still have a report on my fc40 upgrade that shows
all this stuff.  I can send you an ice drive invite
to it if I can figure out your eMail address.  But
I already looked at both, so no real need.
