I'm trying to upgrade a freshly installed Fedora 30 with sudo dnf update and sudo dnf upgrade but I'm running into issues, here is the partial output:

    Search finds bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1724305 Is the problem fixed if you run dnf update libnfsidmap nfs-utils ? Commented Jul 28, 2019 at 14:42
  • "Please can you copy and paste the text" : If it is on system info -- done, else, please specify, ready to help. Running dnf update -y libnfsidmap nfs-utils reproduces the error. Commented Jul 29, 2019 at 4:03

I've tried the workaround and it didn't help (dnf update -y libnfsidmap nfs-utils)

I did another workaround that let me upgrade everything except nfs-utils, these are the steps:

  1. Edit the file /etc/dnf/dnf.conf and add the line: exclude=nfs-utils. Your file should look something like:
[main] gpgcheck=1 installonly_limit=3 clean_requirements_on_remove=True exclude=nfs-utils
  1. Upgrade as normaly: sudo dnf update -y

It sometimes happens that there are conflicts in the repositories. Try e.g. dnf upgrade --exclude <offending-packages>. Check dnf's manpage, you can ask to try best options, delete packages that stand in the way, and so on. Most of the time the problem clears in a day or some hours. I've had such problems after upgrading when stale packages are left behind, that aren't supported anymore but block others. Just get rid of cruft. It might also happen if the database gets scrambled, for example a dnf run crashes and doesn't clean out the old versions. Run dnf list installed (from memory, machine not at hand right now), sort that and look for duplicates. Erase the old duplicates (will need the full rpm name), possibly using the rpm command.
