Hi,
Since updating Fedora Rawhide 2018-06-30T11:30+01:00 dnf simply seg faults.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
If there is no fix, what is the way of getting an update as a workaround.

A workaround would be to download a fixed dnf package and install it manually with RPM.
You could also download an older version and install this to temporarily solve the problem.

I am assuming one has to remove packages to be upgraded or downgraded before installing new ones when using rpm. (I have forgotten most of my rpm knowledge – except rpm -qf.)

It seems this is the only way forward except: dnf 3.0.1 is broken, 3.0.2 requires Python 3.7 ABI but 3.6.5 is installed. dnf 2.7.5 also seems to require Python 3.7 API and there are a number of other packages already installed that do not allow 2.7.5 to be installed. This is a bit of a mess, and I am not sure how to proceed. It seems though installing Python 3.7 over 3.6.5 may just be the way forward.
Given the importance of dnf I wonder of there are some tests missing from the Rawhide build so as to avoid people being allowed to upgrade to a broken dnf?

It seems there is no simple way of upgrading to Python 3.7 using rpm since so much of Fedora Rawhide currently installed depends on Python 3.6.5.
I shall have to leave this for now and hope people with more knowledge of Fedora Rawhide and the current state we find ourselves in can find a way out.

The python 3.7 rebuild should mostly be complete so I suspect it'll be tagged into the main f29 rawhide repository early next week.

Good news in the grand scheme of things, but…
The problem currently is to get a dnf that works with 3.6.5 so that the 3.7 rebuild can be correctly dnf-ed in. Sadly the dnf 2.7.5 from Koji appears to be not a Python 3.6.5 build.
Maybe I just downloaded the wrong collection of rpm files?

You'll want ones tagged to f29 not f29-python
