Joanne, that'll report the kernel version and such but not the
distribution release number.

Jim,

That's odd. I believe that "dnf system-upgrade" pulls this stuff from
a file called /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade.json which contains stuff
such as system_releasever and target_releasever. It sounds like your
system_releasever is set to 24 in that file. If so, then system-upgrade
won't do it as it thinks you're already at that level.

You might be able to change that to "23" and rerun your command, but BE
WARNED! I've never done this and you could hose your system completely.

Is it possible you downloaded system-upgrade while you were pointed at
the rawhide repos and picked that one up instead of the production one?
