When upgrading following the instructions at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/, make sure you perform the optional post upgrade tasks like Clean up retired packages, clean up old packages, clean up old keys, clean up old sym-links. Doing that can reduce your chances of future problems. I've been following those instructions for longer than I can remember and it's always worked for me.
