Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora-modular' (F29) - users - Fedora mailing-lists

30 May 2019


      Hi,
On a new Fedora 29 installation, I get:
sudo dnf update
...
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora-modular'
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora-modular'
So, I look around, and the solution may be:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi
However, it is on updates-testing and I can not get past installing anything because I always hit the above.
I even download the three rpms and try a local install but get the same result because I am unable to get past the above.
sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --advisory=FEDORA-2019-28516f8c38
...
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora-modular'
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora-modular'
Any suggestions how to get around this bug? I even tried doing:
sudo rpm -Uvh
for the three rpms (and they seemingly installed) but I still get the same error upon updating.
sudo dnf update

Any suggestions as to what I could try?
Many thanks and best wishes,
