Created attachment 1842530 [details] update log with error. Description of problem: You will find a log of an broken dnf update process attached. The catch is, the dnf error is "all files are already downloaded" in other words, there is no error message that is presented, it just breaks. This happened for the second time now in rawhide and needs fixing and a workaround description somewhere, because the normal enduser is not able to fix this, due lack of knowlage. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.10.0-1 FC36 ** WORKAROUND ** as root: dnf clean all; # clean out all already downloaded AND ALL PREVIOUSLY CACHED rpms dnf update; # downloads all new rpms again. IN CASE OF REQUIRED CACHING, you need to move the rpms out of /var/cache/dnf/<REPONAME..>/packages/ to safe location like /root/ and later copy them back.

Conclusion: It's nothing with the rpms itself, it's a dnf internal bug.
I updated all of the rpm via rpm -U manually, just to rule out any package problems: none had issues .
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle. Changing version to 36.
Still happening with : # rpm -qi dnf Name : dnf Version : 4.10.0 Release : 2.fc36 Architecture: noarch Install Date: Sa 05 Feb 2022 17:53:16 CET and very annoying.
I see this issue also on ja_JP.utf8, zh_ZW.utf8 # rpm -q dnf dnf-4.10.0-2.fc36.noarch root@localhost ~]# env LANG=C.utf8 LC_ALL=C.utf8 dnf -y upgrade rubygem-unf_ext --downloadonly Last metadata expiration check: 0:04:30 ago on Mon Mar 14 15:36:20 2022.

So this fails at least on ja_JP.utf8 , zh_TW.utf8 . Reporter says this also fails on de_DE.utf8 (perhaps?), but this succeeds on C.utf8.
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 36-final by Fedora user mtasaka using the blocker tracking app because: This bug may affect lots of non-English Fedora user when doing software update
The problem is real and valid. You are not able to update the system with other than english locale in case that some of the updates were already downloaded. This is quite common when you use dnf-automatic. As mentioned you can work-around this issue by cleaning the dnf cache. Steps to reproduce: 1. you need to have at least one upgradable package on the system 2. download updates into cache: # dnf update --downloadonly -y 3. try to update the system having other than C locale set: # LC_ALL=de_DE.utf8 dnf update -y ============================================================================================================================================ Paket Architektur Version Paketquelle Größe ============================================================================================================================================ Aktualisieren: libuv x86_64 1:1.44.1-1.fc35 updates 150 k Transaktionszusammenfassung ============================================================================================================================================ Aktualisieren 1 Paket Gesamtgröße: 150 k Pakete werden heruntergeladen: [SKIPPED] libuv-1.44.1-1.fc35.x86_64.rpm: Already downloaded Die heruntergeladenen Pakete wurden bis zur nächsten erfolgreichen Transaktion im Zwischenspeicher abgelegt.

Should I backport the upstream fix to Fedora rpms using provenpackager power?
I'd rather let the maintainers do it if possible. Marek, can you or someone else from DNF team please get this fix backported to Rawhide and F36? Thanks!
Yes, @jrohel is already working on this.
FEDORA-2022-35fda65bea has been submitted as an update to Fedora 35. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-35fda65bea
FEDORA-2022-e8f2dc6c50 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 36. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-e8f2dc6c50
FEDORA-2022-e8f2dc6c50 has been pushed to the Fedora 36 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --advisory=FEDORA-2022-e8f2dc6c50` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-e8f2dc6c50 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates.

Another workaround for people that came here from a search engine, like me, is to fix this temporarily on machines with non-working locales, without losing the package cache, through specifying the locale, in reverse to Marek's example above, as one where the described effect does not occur, e.g.: LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 dnf update -y
