I have the akmod.nvidia and kmod.nvidia proprietary driversinstalled and when they are updated, the package manager I use tells me about the packages that have to be uninstalled in order to do the update (this package manager seems to uninstall to old kmod package and installs the new one rather than update as such), but when I look at what dnf would do if I used that, it just tells me it is going to update the kmod driver and mentions nothing about the peripheral packages that will be removed. Is this normal functionality or is it a Beta testing issue?
Stephen,
what would you say a difference between 'updating' and 'removing and insatlling new version' is? What is the benefit of the latter in your specific case?
