Upgrading to Plasma 6

My test feedback.
Suggesting slight changes, and comments:

For ROME and cooker we use distro-sync

sudo dnf clean all;dnf clean all;dnf repolist
sudo dnf --refresh --allowerasing distro-sync 2>&1 | tee dsync.log

also run
sudo dnf remove om-feeling-like systemd-kcm
as om-feeling-like intended for Plasma5 needs some modifications for Plasma6, and systemd-kcm is not available anymore.

,
Got the conflicts list as you described above, and added some packages to the lists.

There will be a problem when you run transaction from inside the desktop because you will get the screen black (due to sddm upgrade) so I’d suggest to run commands after logout in virtual terminal.
While there you also can enable and start the new sddm, or you can do it after reboot.

I found my desktop like this, but easy to fix

Logout/Login
