Hi Ervin, sorry for hijacking your bug, but this error seems to be related to yumex-dnf. It appears every time when an updated package has new dependencies to install or a package replaces another package. As you've noticed, updating via the "dnf" tool in terminal works. This is 100% reproducible. E.g. I'm seeing right now: Error(s) in building transactionupdate : python3-qt5-webkit-5.6-4.fc24.x86_64 update : ocl-icd-2.2.8-3.git20151217.0122332.fc24.x86_64 update : kyotocabinet-libs-1.2.76-9.fc23.x86_64 update : opencl-filesystem-1.0-4.fc24.noarch update : clang-libs-3.8.0-2.fc24.x86_64 update : qt5-qtwebkit-5.6.1-3.b889f46git.fc24.x86_64 update : python2-yapsy-1.11.223-4.fc24.noarch update : python2-nikola-7.7.11-3.fc24.noarch update : libclc-0.2.0-3.20160207gitdc330a3.fc24.x86_64 update : mesa-libOpenCL-12.0.1-1.fc24.x86_64 If I run dnf install in the terminal, it shows Installing: clang-libs x86_64 3.8.0-2.fc24 updates 8.2 M kyotocabinet-libs x86_64 1.2.76-9.fc23 fedora 317 k libclc x86_64 0.2.0-3.20160207gitdc330a3.fc24 fedora 5.0 M mesa-libOpenCL x86_64 12.0.1-1.fc24 updates 539 k ocl-icd x86_64 2.2.8-3.git20151217.0122332.fc24 fedora 46 k opencl-filesystem noarch 1.0-4.fc24 fedora 7.9 k python2-nikola noarch 7.7.11-3.fc24 updates 1.6 M replacing python-nikola.noarch 7.7.9-2.fc24 python2-yapsy noarch 1.11.223-4.fc24 updates 58 k replacing python-yapsy.noarch 1.11.223-3.fc24 python3-qt5-webkit x86_64 5.6-4.fc24 updates 134 k qt5-qtwebkit x86_64 5.6.1-3.b889f46git.fc24 updates 10 M And the transaction finishes correctly.
This is not fixed, please don't just close it: Error(s) in building transactionupdate : gdouros-symbola-fonts-8.00-5.fc24.noarch
This is still occurring with yumex-dnf-4.3.3-1.fc24.noarch and seems to be related to https://github.com/timlau/yumex-dnf/issues/129.

Still happening on Fedora 25 with the latest DNF Yumex. But these blokes will keep ignoring it for a few years, then close when Fedora 25 will be "end of life" Been there done that. Don't hold your breath!
Fedora 25: Error(s) in building transactionupdate : chromium-freeworld-libs-media-56.0.2924.76-2.fc25.x86_64
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Correct. From that GH ticket: >I have not been able to find the time to maintain yumex-dnf for a long periode of time, so i have deceided to stop the project and orphan it from Fedora.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Still happening on Fedora 26. In 26, yumex-dnf just shows a dialog box with a python backtrace, then terminates.
@Mike: Thanks for the reply. @Alex: Tim stopped the development of yumex-dnf [1]. But there are plans to replace it with dnfdragora in Fedora 27. See Bug #1438671 [1] https://github.com/timlau/yumex-dnf/blob/develop/README.md
Yeah, keep replacing with all these wonderful new things that come around... for a year or two... until the next "developer" looses interest and moves on! What was wrong with yum? Nothing.
yumex-dnf allows me to quickly see which packages are updated and what changes they have. Is any other tool available that provides this 'low level' functionality? I'm running xfce.
