Lacking Natural Simplicity

Fedora 31 is out, and fool that I am I'm upgrading to it. Unfortunately, my DSL connection is slow and my DSL modem router is flaky. With over 3000 packages to download,

dnf -y system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=31

is bound to die in the middle at least once, if not multiple times, and with more than 6 hours estimated for the download to run I can't sit watching it and restarting it every time it dies.

I tried running dnf as the argument to a while loop, but was unable to C-c to interrupt it when I did want to kill it since dnf caught the SIGINT and the loop started the dnf command over again before I could C-c the shell.

Here's the script I came up with to work around the issue:

This way I can stop the script easily, but if it dies itself it will continue after a timeout.
