Issue

What were you trying to do that didn't work? The leapp upgrae fails with error. 1. Actor: dnf_package_download Message: DNF execution failed with non zero exit code. Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen: leapp package. How reproducible: On a  RHEL 7 system install `iwl7260-firmware` or any third party package which has RHel shipped update in RHEL 7. During the leapp preupgrade/upgrade it fails with the below error in `leapp-report.txt` Summary: {"STDERR": "Failed to create directory /var/lib/leapp/el8userspace//sys/fs/selinux: Read-only file system Failed to create directory /var/lib/leapp/el8userspace//sys/fs/selinux: Read-only file system Warning: Package marked by Leapp to upgrade not found in repositories metadata: leapp leapp-upgrade-el7toel8 gpg-pubkey python2-leapp RPM: warning: Generating 6 missing index(es), please wait...
