Yes, "dnf" will not remove the running kernel. But, are we 100% certain that "pkcon" follows the same rule? I suppose I could try it on a VM to test. And even if it doesn't "today", it didn't always use libdnf. So, it could be a remnant. -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
