Strangely the Fedora 29 update broke my laptop.  Well, it's still 
working but I'm going to install something like Mint or Manjaro.  Last 
time I had a Fedora problem I was writing a Fedora 12 distro review for 
Linux User and Developer magazine.  If you look at the Fedora users list 
archive you can see a lot of stuff about this.  There is even a thread 
about how to get DNF to function properly.  Or, so they claim.  I've 
given up.  Try something else.  CentOS makes a nice web server.

For my part.  Being someone who uses DigitalOcean.com for a web server. 
Small scale stuff. I don't have a problem.  Anything goes wrong I delete 
my server and install a new one from a backup.
