Was it you or someone else that got into this same situation recently?
Not sure. In early or mid October, I upgraded from f39 to f40. There
were major problems. There was some similarity to this, but
definitely not identical. A key part of the problem was the
post-upgrade task to clean up retired packages apparently
malfunctioned big-time. You were one of the main helpers on that.
What does "rpm -q fedora-release" show you?
"fedora-release-40-39.noarch"
I don't know what you're doing, but the upgrade clearly failed again.
I followed the instructions in
"https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/";.
I did likewise this past October.
Upon rebooting (console login was the only way to log in), "akmods"
still fails.
Your login screen isn't going to work until you get the akmods figured
out. What's the log from that now?

------
I agree with what you said, but my gut is saying that something is wrong
at a more fundamental level. I don't know what, or how to determine
what. I doubt that the akmods problem can be solved until the more
fundamental problem is determined and solved. I think the same was true
with the October version upgrade. There was some other key step that
preceded getting the akmods thing solved. I still wonder of some
on-disk data (rpm database?) was damaged by the October version upgrade,
and is still now in a damaged state. But I don't know how to check that.
