Isn't "memory warnings of some type" too vague to even comment on it?

I'd probably start by running "package-cleanup" to see if there were any dupes.

Then, when running "update" I'd add the --best option since I think without it 
dependency issues are silenced.

It seems most people that say they are "done talking about it" never really are 
until given the last word.

Fedup half-complete

[Timothy Murphy]

I followed the instructions at

to upgrade my second-best laptop from Fedora-21 to 22.
The upgrade failed halfway through with memory warnings of some type.
I ran fedora-upgrade again, and this time it installed all the packages,
but hung halfway through cleanup.

Rather surprisingly, the system booted into a version
that seems to be a mixture of Fedora-21 and Fedora-22.
/etc/fedora-release says it is 22, but the kernel is 21.

Running dnf distro-sync and dnf update gives

[tim@rose ~]$ sudo dnf distro-sync
Last metadata expiration check performed 2:59:30 ago on Sat Aug 22 17:53:07 
2015.
Error: package libksysguard-common-5.3.2-1.fc22.x86_64 conflicts with 
ksysguard < 5.2 provided by ksysguard-4.11.14-1.fc21.x86_64.
package kf5-kactivities-5.12.0-1.fc22.x86_64 requires kf5-kactivities-
libs(x86-64) = 5.12.0-1.fc22, but none of the providers can be installed.
package dnf-yum-0.6.1-1.fc21.noarch requires dnf = 0.6.1-1.fc21, but none of 
the providers can be installed
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting 
packages)
[tim@rose ~]$ sudo dnf update
Last metadata expiration check performed 2:59:40 ago on Sat Aug 22 17:53:07 
2015.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!


Any suggestions?
Should I just forget this, and install Fedora-22 in the usual way?
