Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to upgrade a KDE-based workstation from F38 to F39. I delayed the upgrade to ensure this workstation would remain available. The delay allowed a problem with powerdevil and libddcutil to creep in. It is causing `dnf update` and `dnf update --refresh` to fail.
I use only Fedora repos. I don't have any third party repos enabled, like RPM Fusion.
I see a couple of other specific questions about powerdevil and libddcutil from F38, but I don't see a clear path forward.
How do I fix the problem?
Thanks in advance.

These are the version I see:
[root@armf38 ~]# rpm -q powerdevil libddcutil powerdevil-5.27.8-1.fc38.aarch64 libddcutil-1.4.1-1.fc38.aarch64
When I attempt an update it is successfully. After the update I have these versions:
[root@armf38 ~]# rpm -q powerdevil libddcutil powerdevil-5.27.8-2.fc38.aarch64 libddcutil-2.0.0-1.fc38.aarch64
I see in your output that the conflicting version comes from the "fedora" repo.
I wonder if you can try this:
dnf update --refresh --disablerepo=fedora powerdevil libddcutil
Does that workaround the issue?

Thanks Barry. It looks like no joy.
I opened a KDE bug, which was subsequently closed: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=477040. I then opened the Fedora-specific bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2249809.
Let's see what the maintainers have to say.

Update us on what they say please.
You could try "dnf clean all" it may help.

Hi,
Just looked into the issue, the root cause is due to that 2 different updates are being built and pushed simultaneously in 2 different side-tags for 2 different sobumps, and one overrides another.
This is being be sorted out by following update: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-581f3d0e12
Following the instructions you should be able to update both ddcutil and powerdevil.
And question for development list: how can we avoiding this sort of things from happening again, like always setup buildroot override for pending (in testing) so-name change updates that it will propagate to other side-tags?
Cheers, Qiyu

Thanks Qiyu. That worked for me.
