Comment 3 Herman Viaene 2019-12-07 10:21:01 CET
MGA7-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50
At installation in MCC I get:
The  following package has to be removed to upgrade others:
krb5-appl-clients-1.0.3-10.mga7.x86_64
 (bacause of conflicts with netkit-telnet).

# urpmq --whatrequires fence-agents
fence-agents

From MCC :"Fence Agents is a collection of scripts to handle remote power management for several devices."
If someone else has an idea what this is about, I don't.
Or agree to OK clean install, there seem to be no adverse effects.

It's all beyond me, too. But, I can confirm your experience with a clean install and no ill effects. Going to let this one go on just that.

Clean install OK on 64-bit. Validating. Advisory in Comment 2.
