Nextcloud 10 isn't supported anymore upstream and seems to be unmaintained in Fedora. An upgrade path from version 10 to an upstream supported version isn't supported without skipping major versions and complex. Therefore Nextcloud should be removed completely from Fedora. More information on the package progress: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1433919
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'.

Ivan, what is your current plan with nextcloud?
Ivan?
IMO the nextcloud package should now be removed until somebody re-adds it.
Based on work of https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/scren/nextcloud/builds/ I've been able to build a v17.0.2 rpm easily The source rpm is available here: http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/SRPMS/nextcloud-17.0.2-1.el7.src.rpm It builds fine using remi and remi-php73 and EPEL repositories on CentOS-7.7 so I assume it should build easily on fedora.
See also my last message here: https://forum.remirepo.net/viewtopic.php?pid=10993#p10993 You can't upgrade v10.0.4 rpm with v17, so I assume that the v11 to v16 database upgrade process should be included with a script that would check what upgrade needs to be done. Alas, I'm not skilled enough for that.
There is also a nextcloud ticket about adding the ability to upgrade between multiple major releases: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/2270
The linked issue hasn't seen updates in almost 3 years. I don't think it is feasible to migrate any existing v10 instances to $current at this stage. The package should be deprecated and removed from Fedora repos. After that $current can go through review again and be re-added without worrying about supporting upgrades from v10.
I took ownership of the nextcloud package, i made a major refactor to the spec file and updated it to the current version (18.0.0). The package has now been uploaded and built successfully [1]. [1] https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=23789

Versions 18+ of nextcloud are in F32-rawhide. I won't update the F31 package, on the off-chance that any F31 user has the v10 installed & since there is no good way of updating v10 -> v18+. Those user will probably still get a seriously messed up installation when they upgrade from F31 to F32. Is there any good way to circumvent that?
Refuse o start if the old installation is detected?
Possibly. The only real issue will likely be changes in the database that the nc updater can't cope with.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24. 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 '31'. 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 31 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 31 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-24. Fedora 31 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.
