My Fedora 41 install is broken when using my iGPU with the 6.12 kernel. I’d like to go back to 6.11, however after following this guide, I get the following errors:

Failed to resolve the transaction:
Problem 1: conflicting requests
- nothing provides libperl.so.5.38()(64bit) needed by perf-6.11.11-200.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline
Problem 2: conflicting requests
- nothing provides python(abi) = 3.12 needed by python3-perf-6.11.11-200.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline
- nothing provides libperl.so.5.38()(64bit) needed by python3-perf-6.11.11-200.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline
You can try to add to command line:
--skip-broken to skip uninstallable packages
Solved.
I used sudo dnf --repo fedora downgrade "kernel*" instead.
If anyone is interested, here’s the kernel log.

As you can see f41 has libperl.so.5.40 and whatever you are trying to do wants libperl.so.5.38 which is not available for f41.
A search shows that the package perl-libs-4.5.38.2-506.fc40.x86_64 contains that library file.
For problem 2 the python version in f41 is currently 3.13.1 and the python3-perf package is asking for python 3.12 as well as the libperl.so library.
I suggest that one solution may be to remove both those packages (perf, and python3-perf) then do the update.
A better option may be to run
sudo dnf install perf-6.11.11-300.fc41.x86_64 python3-perf-6.11.11-300.x86_64 --allowerasing --enablerepo updates-archive
Both those packages are in the fedora updates-archive repo for f41.
$ sudo dnf install perf-6.11.11-* python3-perf-6.11.11*

Is this ok [y/N]:
