Okay, that makes sense.
I just run the command:
dnf upgrade --refresh
to update my rawhide system. It only downloaded one package, the package
name is Fedora Rawhide, after that, there isn't any installation
process, then the command just output complete, and quit.
That's not a package, it's the name of the repository: it's telling you
it's refreshing the metadata for that repository. When you pass --
refresh it forces it to go out and re-fetch the metadata, and that's
what you see happening.
I think there
must be one installation because my kernel is older than the current
one. But there is none.
Then I reboot my laptop, it seems that the kernel is not upgraded to the
newest version. Did I do something wrong?
Nope, you likely just hit a mirror which didn't have the new metadata
yet. If you try again in a few hours you may get a different result.
When there are actually package updates to apply, dnf will list them
and require you to say '(y)es' to approve the installation.
