So, offline updates on KDE are unnecessary to workaround the issue for the time being.
Ed, yes I understand that... but... That isn't my question. My question relates to the apparent "official" Fedora recommendation to NOT use dnf within a terminal under a DE - but instead to only use the GNOME GUI which does all updates with a reboot required each time.
I read Adam's posts to say the way for KDE folks to do it would be under a VT.
I run systems with no, or very little GNOME bits. I don't even know how easy/hard/recommended it would be to use GNOME's update method under my situation. And, I must say, I wouldn't have any curiosity to find out. :-)
Oh, I should say that for the time being I'm ssh'ing into my systems from my tablet and updating using dnf that way. I rather prefer the logs kept by dnf and have run into "confusion" when I mixed in using KDE's "Software Update" and couldn't track down when I updated a particular package.
