"Gathering crash information failed for unknown reasons"

I shouldn't only write about computers when they don't work.
This morning, for example, the upgrade from #fedora39 to #fedora40 went smoothly and the system could boot afterwards.

XWayland crashes twice during a one hour Skype call.

Someone reported a very similar bug 6 months ago; another half dozen people made "me too" reports.

If someone is working on it, that's not visible from the bug report.

Giving up on Wayland, so trying to log out to switch to Xorg. After clicking on "leave", everything froze. Mouse, keyboard, status bar clock... hard reset, sigh.

And the next step was to upgrade the *desktop* from 36 to #Fedora38. (36 was a fresh install).

So far it's stuck in a loop right after 'system-upgrade reboot':
"systemd[1]: looping too fast. Throttling execution a little"

Second image: how far things has progressed after about 9 hours.

The first image is from after I rebooted to let it try again... It doesn't seem to go any further just because the reboot.
