Do you happen to have that enabled on your system ?
Yes, I always enable it. It's a plausible theory that this could be responsible. > If so, it may be best to BZ the akmod package.

It seems unlikely that a specific package could be the cause of the bug rather than dnf itself (including the plugin of course). Package installation is often going to run scripts (complex ones in the case of akmod) so it would be up to dnf to handle the locking correctly. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
