If php-recode is install on F31, it causes the upgrade to fail because it depends on the original php, there is no php-recode available on F32, and this causes conflicts. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): php-7.4.6-1.fc32 Steps to Reproduce: $ podman run --rm -it fedora:31 # dnf install php-recode python3-dnf-plugin-system-upgrade # dnf system-upgrade download --release=32 Actual results: Error: Problem: package php-recode-7.3.18-1.fc31.x86_64 requires php-common(x86-64) = 7.3.18-1.fc31, but none of the providers can be installed - php-common-7.3.18-1.fc31.x86_64 does not belong to a distupgrade repository - problem with installed package php-recode-7.3.18-1.fc31.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) Expected results: Upgrade should proceed smoothly.
This is not a bug. recode have been removed from PHP See: https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration74.removed-extensions.php And no other package requires it. The transaction fails, by design, as user which have this extension installed must known if doesn't exist anymore Using # dnf system-upgrade download --release=32 --allowerasing This will work, for this package and some other (distro-sync unsupported upgrade method should also work)
This message is a reminder that Fedora 32 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 32 on 2021-05-25.

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.
