When we do a dnf system-upgrade from F22 to F23, the /etc/os-release is supposed to be updated to reflect the new release number. ls -l /etc/fedora-release /etc/os-release ? (In reply to Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek from comment #2) > ls -l /etc/fedora-release /etc/os-release ? Not the same, just look at the differences. I seem to remember sgallagh played with the way this was generated for Server/Workstation/Cloud and probably missed upgrade paths, sgallagh do you remember details? Of course not the same. I'm asking if they are symlinks and where do they point.

I need more information about what went wrong. First and foremost, I'd like to see the output of: * rpm -q fedora-release * ls -l /etc/os-release /etc/fedora-release /usr/lib/os-release /usr/lib/os.release.d I did test upgrades, but there's always a possibility that I missed something and one of the symlinks is now wrong. Hi Stephen, The Fedora-release that was there was from a Remix. Sorry. sudo rpm -q fedora-release package fedora-release is not installed sudo dnf install fedora-release --allow --best Last metadata expiration check performed 0:00:57 ago on Fri Dec 11 17:29:03 2015. Dependencies resolved. ===================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ===================================================================================================================================== Installing: fedora-release noarch 23-1 fedora 16 k Removing: chapeau-release noarch 23-1 @chapeau 4.1 k Transaction Summary ===================================================================================================================================== Install 1 Package Remove 1 Package Subsequently rpm -qa fedora-release fedora-release-23-1.noarch The Chapeau Remix provided the fedora-release file. I see that they have also provided os-release. I will contact them to provide a workaround. I will be performing a clean installation next week. If you require additional info, post here. |
