I would on the contrary advise not to do it manually, as there is a possibility to miss out a package and then the upgrade will not work.
It is easy to use koji on the command line:

  1. Install koji: sudo dnf install koji
  2. Create an empty directory to download the packages to: mkdir ~/todelete
  3. Go into that directory: cd ~/todelete
  4. Fetch the packages from the build using this command: koji download-build 1848938 --arch x86_64 (if your arch is not x86, then consult koji --help for other architectures). Also the number here is the specific build ID, in this case it matches kparal's link. Generally, if you click on the built package on the BUILD card in Bodhi (https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-82a48ba538), it will take you to Koji, where you will be able to find that ID (https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-82a48ba538)
  5. The above command will download all packages needed for the update. Sometimes, it downloads more than necessary.
  6. Update the package using dnf (it will automatically select only those needed by your system): sudo dnf update ./* (on condition that in that directory only the appropriate packages exist, otherwise, you need to specify the wildcard).
  7. after the update, delete the content of that directory and you are all set.
Happy updating.

Looking into the status of the update it says "pending->testing" and so it is not yet in testing (nowhere in the world). :-)


If you want you can follow the links and go directly to koji to get the rpms and to install them locally (using dnf, of course).

I know that there are ways to do this using the command line but I only search for that when the update has a very large number of packages, in this case I would do it manually. :-)
