| Summary | 0000171: Unable to lock release version | ||||
| Description | I'm unable to lock release version. I tried with different ways: 1 - echo "8.4" > /etc/dnf/vars/releasever 2 - Modify the /etc/dnf.conf and add distroverpkg=8.4 to main section Every time i run dnf upgrade i still get all packages updates to 8.5 If i run: python3 -c 'import dnf, json; db = dnf.dnf.Base(); print(json.dumps(db.conf.substitutions, indent=2))' Always shows 8 instead of 8.4: { "arch": "x86_64", "basearch": "x86_64", "releasever": "8" } I also tried with: dnf --releasever=8.4 upgrade but i still get the 8.5 packages. | ||||

Hello. Thank you, for your question. It is expected behavior, version 8.4 is no longer supported because 8.5 is released. If you want to use 8.4, you can uncomment and change 'baseurl' in config files from '/etc/yum.repos.d/' to 'https://repo.almalinux.org/vault/8.4/{BaseOS\AppStream\etc}/{x86_64\aarch64}/os', and comment 'mirrorlist' line. |
