I tried to update my existing v9.4 to 9.5 using dnf update, but I get the following error and cannot update. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Lets look at just that.

  • Repository appstream has package NetworkManager-cloud-setup-1:1.48.10-3.el9_5.aarch64 that would replace currently installed NetworkManager-cloud-setup-1:1.46.0-19.el9_4.aarch64
  • The new version requires NetworkManager-1:1.48.10-3.el9_5.aarch64 but that package is not in any enabled repository
  • The NetworkManager is from repository baseos

I did just look at my closest local mirror and there is NetworkManager-1:1.48.10-3.el9_5.aarch64 in baseos as well as NetworkManager-cloud-setup-1:1.48.10-3.el9_5.aarch64 in appstream.

Possible explanations:

  • Your closest mirror did not have up to date baseos
  • You have somehow disabled baseos
  • The ‘dnf’ has stale cache

One can clear the cache (completely):

sudo dnf --enablerepo=* clean all

One can look at what dnf sees about NetworkManager:

sudo dnf list --showduplicates NetworkManager
