#69 How can I Report a Bug with Fedora 39 Cinnamon
Closed: out of scope 11 months ago by x3mboy. Opened 11 months ago by sparks79.

I'll briefly mention the three Bugs that are Annoying me.
After a Clean Install of the O/S and I Run Dnfdragora to Update the System, Just when you think it has Finished, Everything Freezes . The only thing available is to click Log out or Restart.
The other issue is, there is No Software app, I have to install that myself Manually in the Terminal with ( sudo dnf install gnome-software ).????.
The third issue is dconf Editor, the software center shows it as being Installed, but it won't run and i have to Reinstall it.
These bugs are also in fedora 38 cinnamon and may even be in earlier versions


Hi, Thanks for the report, but bugs should be filed against bugzilla. I'm closing this one since it doesn't belongs here.

Metadata Update from @x3mboy:
- Issue close_status updated to: out of scope
- Issue status updated to: Closed (was: Open)

Thanks, I have already reported it to Bugzilla, but they said it must be
a problem with whoever makes fedora spins .
So nobody cares and they just pass the buck.
I looks like I'll have to put up with it.
To Hell with it I will.
No Someone has to Stand up for these problems and be accounted for.
I will keep searching for someone that's honest and has enough Gumption
to Make the Producers Take Action.

I understand your frustration, but just opening random tickets is not going to help.

I will try to answer some of these questions:

After a Clean Install of the O/S and I Run Dnfdragora to Update the System, Just when you think it has Finished, Everything Freezes . The only thing available is to click Log out or Restart.

Probably need to check logs. There are tons of reasons why this could happen. It's probably a bug on dnfdragora, not in the spin, but need to check logs to be sure.

The other issue is, there is No Software app, I have to install that myself Manually in the Terminal with ( sudo dnf install gnome-software ).????.

It shouldn't be. Cinnamon doesn't have a Software Center, so it's normal gnome-software is not included, since you're not in Gnome.

The third issue is dconf Editor, the software center shows it as being Installed, but it won't run and i have to Reinstall it.

Like I said, Software Center (gnome-software) it's not intended to be used in Cinnamon, so I wouldn't expect to function correctly under other Desktops environment. If you could collect logs of the first run of the software center, it would help you to focus the attention on what's happening. I think it could be a bad reading of PackageKit database, but I couldn't tell, since I'm not a specialist on neither Software Center nor Cinnamon.

Finally, since it looks like you're not a new user of Fedora, I think that you could just use the terminal to manage stuff, it's easier , faster and more reliable than any other way.

Thanks for all that info.
I will chew it over and try an make good use of it.
But I am not going to follow up anywhere else with complaints, mainly
because I just don't have the Time.
I guess it's no major issue.
So Thanks , CHEERS, John
