Thanks. I have 3 other machines in room that are running Fedora 35, and none of them have the /var/lib/dnf/yumdb directory at all.
This is strange, because that directory belongs to the dnf-data package, and I'm sure you have that installed.
Interesting. I did a dnf whatprovides /var/lib/dnf/yumdb and it came up with the dnf-data..
It is installed on all 4 machines, but 3 don't have the yumdb directory??
Perhaps it is created during the transistion of a system that was using yum to dnf, so it is only created at that point??
I don't know, but I'd be surprised if the content of a package depended on the way the system was installed. Just out of curiosity, what does rpm -V dnf-data say? Does it signal that /var/lib/dnf/yumdb directory is missing?
FWIW I get this:
[simon@localhost ~]$ rpm -V dnf-data .M....... g /var/lib/dnf/groups.json .M....... g /var/lib/dnf/history .M....... g /var/log/hawkey.log
