System:
Host: ga970 Kernel: 5.12.14-200.fc33.x86_64 x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Trinity
Distro: Fedora release 34 (Thirty Four)

Before you continue ensure that your system is fully upgraded by running "dnf
--refresh upgrade". Do you want to continue [y/N]: y
I proceeded to upgrade the old-fashioned way, by manually downloading and
installing the repo configuration files, then running dnf upgrade with kernel and
trinity packages locked. The following non-trinity packages remained installed in
their F34 version as a result:

Note in particular foundational systemd* are all blocked by the necessity
to keep the old cryptsetup* packages required by TDE.
I did manage to complete the upgrade of cryptsetup*, *udev and systemd* by
sacrificing these TDE packages:
trinity-konqueror
trinity-konqueror-nsplugins
trinity-tdebase
trinity-tdebase-tdeio-plugins
