Description Timur Kristóf 2024-10-03 14:14:27 UTC
I updated my laptop from Fedora 40 to Fedora 41 yesterday using the dnf system-upgrade plugin, following the instructions on this page:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/

The upgrade worked fine, and I moved on to "Optional post-upgrade tasks", which have a recommendation to run "dnf repoquery --unsatisfied". It seems this command doesn't work anymore on Fedora 41 and yields the following error message:

Unknown argument "--unsatisfied" for command "repoquery". Add "--help" for more information about the arguments.

I am not sure, but I assume that the "--unsatisfied" argument was intentionally removed from dnf, in which case I recommend to please update the above documentation page to stop recommending running that command and maybe recommend an alternative instead.




Reproducible: Always

I reviewed the manual and posted some simple fixes there.
I also reported bugs against DNF5 which deserves fixing (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf5/issues/760, https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf5/issues/1759). I kept them in the manual.

Comment 2 Petr Pisar 2024-10-22 11:11:44 UTC
2 of 3 fixes were merged into the documentation.

Comment 3 Petr Pisar 2024-10-22 11:53:51 UTC
The last fix was merged.
