Recently several reports of people getting 'duplicated
packages' and
'kernel updates not working' have come through to us in QA from Fedora
24 users. I managed to get one reporter to explain more specifically
what happened, and it sounds a lot like what's happening is that
something in the 'dnf update' process can cause a GNOME or X crash,
LXQT in my case, so more X than GNOME crash
is there a bug I can subscribe to?
Otherwise, at least run 'dnf update' in a VT -
hit ctrl-alt-f3 to get a VT console login prompt, log in, and do it
there. Don't do it inside your desktop.
or better (IMHO) - run it using `screen` ;-)
