I followed the standard process to upgrade from F40 to F41:
# dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=41
# dnf system-upgrade reboot
System restarted and installed new RPMs as expected, upgraded to F41.
When I tried to do the same for F42, this did not work.
After reboot, new RPMs were not installed and the system did not
upgrade.
When I try to run
# dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42
again, I get the following message:
There is already an offline transaction queued, initiated by the
following command:
dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42
Continuing will cancel the old offline transaction and replace it
with this one.
I've tried running
# dnf5 offline clean
and redoing this process. but that doesn't make any difference.
I'm unclear what the offline transaction is or how to complete the
upgrade. Any clarification would be appreciated.
That offline transaction is the upgrade, which is done offline.
What does "dnf5 offline status" show?
Check what's in /usr/lib/sysimage/libdnf5/offline/ and try clearing it.
# dnf5 offline status
An offline transaction was started, but it did not finish. Run `dnf5
offline log` for more information. The command that initiated the
transaction was:
dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42
# dnf5 offline log
The following boots appear to contain offline transaction logs:
1 / 628017bb2224473fa53547cb696722a6: 2025-06-09 12:52:40 40→41

That seems like a lot of attempts in a short time. You could try
running "dnf offline log --number=-1" to see what happened. You could
also try, -2, -3, etc.
Apparently, the log numbers need to be positive, not negative.
Log 1 shows package upgrades from F40 to F41. The other logs show
no package upgrades.
I looked closer at the log and found a message that the offline-update
service failed, with messages about trying to install both poppler-25
and poppler-24, as well as kf5-kitinerary requiring libpoppler, which
could not be found.
I also found that both kf5-baloo and kf6-baloo components were
installed, which apparently caused a conflict.
I removed poppler (later reinstalled, apparently) and kf5-baloo,
Ran "dnf5 offline reboot" and completed F41->F42 upgrade.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
