Hi All,

This happened to me again when I went to upgrade my
shop computer from FC40 to fc41.  So I though I'd repeat
my fix here:

Note: dnf dose not use /etc/redhat-release as it release
version.  It uses
   /usr/share/licenses/fedora/fedora-release-common*
On my F41 system upgraded from F40, it is using /etc/redhat-release to store its release version which for me contains Fedora release 41 (Forty One)  and /usr/share/fedora/fedora-release-common contains nothing but a legal txt file and a license file, there is no fedora sub-folder of licenses.
Command "rpm -qa /*fedora-release-common/*" produces nothing.

regards,
Steve

When dnf thinks you are on the wrong release:

  if after the upgrade, dnf still thinks you are on the older version,
      remove the stray "fedora-release-common"
      For example:
          # rpm -qa \*fedora-release-common\*
          fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch
          fedora-release-common-40-39.noarch
          # dnf remove fedora-release-common-39-36.noarch
          or globally
              # dnf upgrade --allowerase --releasever=[your release, 41 for example]
