Problems upgrading to Fedora 34

[Feoli, Dr. Enrique]

Hello,
I am unfamiliar on how to communicate in th users lists. I hope not to be breaking Code of Conduct by sending this emal.

I have found Fedora a great working tool and need to upgrade from Fedora 33 to Fedora 34. But the download in the Software app is giving the following error:
Error running transaction: file/usr/.build-id/c7/-dcd663e38adaac7a2d6d137c46f337ab5543cf conflicts between attempted installs of openjfx8-80.202-26.b07.fc34x86_64 and openjfx-3:11.0.9.2-4.fc34x86_64

Would anyone help in fixing this problem?

Thanks and regards
Enrique Feoli

I'm not familiar with openjfx or openjf8 and I've not see this sort of error before.

There are several things you can try.

system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=34 --allowerasing

or

system-upgrade --exclude=openjfx --exclude= openjfx8 --refresh --releasever=34
then upgrade them after the system upgrade has completed.

or

You can remove/erase those two packages, do the upgrade, and then add them back after the
upgrade is complete.

He's using Gnome Software.  I don't know how to do that in there.  Also, 
that won't work for this issue.  The transaction is fine until it checks 
the files.  Two packages are providing the same file.  One solution is 
to try removing openjfx and hope it doesn't remove too many things. 
Another one is to add a "-x 'openjfx*'" and see if the transaction can work.

Ah, yes.  I missed the "download in the Software ap" statement.

FWIW, I should have done this earlier, I just tried installing those 2 packages on an
F34 VM and they won't install together.  Maybe they aren't supposed to be both
installed?

As far as I’m aware of you usually use openjfx and Java 11.  If you are stuck with Java 8 for some reason you have to use openjfx8. I just don’t know if openjfx8 works with Java 11 as well. Never tried.

You can install Java 8 and Java 11 in parallel and the same should apply to openjfx/openjfx8.

So it is likely to be a bug in the rpms. But you should be able to apply one of the suggested workarounds without doing harm.

[Feoli, Dr. Enrique]

Thnak you so much Ed for the guidance. I was able to download the
Fedora 34 distribution, removed the openjfix and openjfx8 packages,
plus the two files that appear in the error message
Error: Transaction test error:
  file /usr/lib/.build-id/c7/dcd663e38adaac7a2d8d137c46f337ab5543cf

However, when the command to instal is given the above error appears
repatedly, even after rebooting. Is there some kind of chace to clear?

I believe you are saying that you now have upgraded and are running on F34.
You can "cat /etc/redhat-release) from the command line to verify.

Now the issue is you are trying to install both openjfix and openjfx8 and are getting
the error you show above.

According to Peter Boy's response on the list it is OK for both packages to be installed.
If they fail to install, then there is a packaging problem with one or both of those packages.

In that case, a bugzilla (bug report) should be filed with the goal of getting the
maintainer of the packages to fix the issue.

Makes sense?

[Feoli, Dr. Enrique]

I am certain that I am still on F33. The download wenr fine, but
the transaction test shows the error below and will not allowe
installation, even with both packages removed, so it is clear that I
am not running F34. Would this be abug and reported to bugzilla? Or is
there a way to have the upgrade completed?.

That's "odd".  Could you just send the result of typing this from the commad line?

rpm -q openjfix openjfx8

You should get....

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ rpm -q openjfix openjfx8
package openjfix is not installed
package openjfx8 is not installed

[Feoli, Dr. Enrique]

This the result:
[efeoli@localhost ~]$ rpm -q openjfix openjfx8
package openjfix is not installed
openjfx8-8.0.202-26.b07.fc34.x86_64
[efeoli@localhost ~]$

It looks as if openjfx8 was not removed. Perhaps I did not serached
well?

OK....  You can do

sudo dnf erase openjfx8

from the command line to try and remove it again.

Then try the upgrade.

There is a typo in the command, it's openjfx, not openjfix.
An "i" snuck into the example command.

The ".fc34" in the above should indicate that you're running
Fedora 34.  If you're not, then you're running some hybrid
of 33 and 34, at the least. :)
> sudo dnf erase openjfx8

Or perhaps:

sudo dnf erase 'openjfx*'

to ensure any of the openjfx subpackages are removed?

Though I'm not sure this matters if the upgrade actually
completed.  Then the issue is simply that the two versions
of openjfx cannot be installed in parallel at the moment,
due to the file conflict.

Thanks.  I either need to update my glasses prescription or increase
my font sizes.

Missed that too.  :-(

Based on an off-list message, I think the update has now been completed.
I asked the OP to verify on-list.
