kernel 4.20 fail to upgrade
Hi,
i have this following error just executing the dnf upgrade command:
Error:
Problem 1: package kernel-modules-extra-4.20.6-200.fc29.x86_64 requires kernel-uname-r = 4.20.6-200.fc29.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed
- conflicting requests
Problem 2: package kernel-4.20.6-200.fc29.x86_64 requires kernel-core-uname-r = 4.20.6-200.fc29.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed
- conflicting requests
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
Even with the --skip-broken option same error.
Any suggestion to fix it?
thanks.
Basically somehow dnf doesn't see package kernel-core-4.20.6-200.fc29.x86_6 and because of it doesn't want to install other kernel packages (kernel- and kernel-modules-extra).
You can try
sudo dnf clean all-- to clear all dnf cached information,then
sudo dnf check-updateto get the list of packages to update (note kernel-core-4.20.6, it should be among the updates),and then
sudo dnf upgradeagain to try to install them.It's one of the simplest thing to try.
Also take notice during
dnf upgrade, it could be trying to download kernel-core-4.20.6, but was not successful for some reason, that's the other way you can get into your situation.If that's the case, then
check-updatewill list kernel-core-4.20.6 among updates, and trouble is just with downloading it.Please report if that's the case.
