Hello Fedora 33

Back in the day, it was always wise to wait a couple of weeks before upgrading your Linux Distro so that any bugs that happened to slip through the net came to light before you exposed your lovely working environment to the hopes and aspirations of a group of developers. Things have changed since I got into FOSS over twenty years ago and now it's not as risky as it was back then. That's not to say that there are never any problems but on the whole, you're pretty much on safe ground and so with that in mind I upgraded to Fedora 33 this morning.

So far I've only had one issue as reported by SE Linux (TBH SE Linux is a PITA)

SELinux is preventing gdb from write access on the file rpmdb.sqlite-wal.
Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests
If you want to allow gdb to have write access on the rpmdb.sqlite-wal file
Then you need to change the label on rpmdb.sqlite-wal Do semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'rpmdb.sqlite-wal'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: abrt_etc_t, abrt_tmp_t, abrt_upload_watch_tmp_t, abrt_var_cache_t, abrt_var_log_t, >abrt_var_run_t, afs_cache_t, initrc_tmp_t, kdump_crash_t, mail_home_rw_t, mock_var_lib_t, postfix_postdrop_t, puppet_tmp_t, >rhsmcertd_var_run_t, rpm_log_t, rpm_var_cache_t, rpm_var_run_t, sysfs_t, user_cron_spool_t, user_tmp_t, usr_t.
Then execute: restorecon -v 'rpmdb.sqlite-wal'

I doubt there'll be any more issues hopefully. Without wanting to sound a killjoy, I can never really see anything different unless here's a new theme or icon set, most of the work is done 'under the hood' so to speak. I'll keep you posted if anything else exciting happens.
