my "dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=41" gives

- network-scripts-10.23-1.fc40.x86_64 from @System does not belong to a distupgrade repository
- problem with installed package network-scripts-openvswitch-3.2.2-1.fc39.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken" to skip uninstallable packages)
Adding "--skip-broken" has no effect.
Can I just remove the package network-scripts-openvswitch or will this kill my network connectivity?
Forgive my ignorance... are you trying from F39 to F41?
From F40 to F41.
If you are on F39 or F40, you might try some of the cleanup tasks at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/#sect-optional-post-upgrade-tasks. The section "Cleanup Old Packages" looks interesting in this case.
Oha, remove-retired-packages nameS "network-scripts-openvswitch"
I guess this will solve my problem. Will try it tomorrow.
Thanks so far, Frank
