dnf upgrade fails

[arnaud gaboury]

I want to upgrade from 24 to 25. Following this[0], I first run:
# dnf upgrade --refresh

I am left with an issue for one package:

------------------------------
  Upgrading   :
httpd-2.4.23-5.fc24.x86_64
1/4
Error unpacking rpm package httpd-2.4.23-5.fc24.x86_64
Error unpacking rpm package httpd-2.4.23-5.fc24.x86_64
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/sbin/suexec;584e75cb: cpio:
cap_set_file
------------------------------------

I have no idea what I am supposed to do to solve this issue.

Thank you for help.

EDIT:
I was thinking as a hack to download the .rpm then install it with rpm
-Uvh. But the extract fils again:

# rpm -Uvh filesystem-3.2-37.fc24.x86_64.rpm
Preparing...                          #################################
[100%]
Updating / installing...
   1:filesystem-3.2-37.fc24           ################################# [
50%]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /proc: cpio: chown
------------------------------------------------------------
Is it possible to extract this file somewhere else than /proc ? I am not an
expert in how rpm (or dnf) works step by step, but they shall at one point
extract the archive.

Hi,

It seems like it fails on first package and rpm is not able to extract
the package content. Do you have write access on your system?

If it was just one package problem then you could exclude that package
i.e.: "dnf upgrade -x filesystem".

Why does the OP say that he has a problem with httpd, and then tries
manually to install filesystem instead?

What is your root or /usr filesystem? Is it NFS?

is it the first time you are experiencing this? Have you ever manager
to install a package with rpm on this system?

I would recommend to fill bug on rpm component [1] or ask at #rpm.org
on FreeNode rpm devs about rpm btrfs support.

Yes it is the first time. I do think it has to do with the fact that Fedora
is a systemd-nspawn container and some userspace issue related. See this
issue: #4078 [0]

Unfortunately I can't cope at the moment with my issue, and some packages
can't be upgraded (only two atm, which is few).

That seems likely and I have no suggestions.
