Welcome to fedora @garrethdk

Please remove the package in terminal with sudo dnf remove libgomp-15.0.1-0.11.fc42.i686

After that you can try to ubdate again in Software.

You appear to be running f42 with an f41 kernel. The current kernel version for f42 is 6.14.2-300
I would first do a complete update to your system with sudo dnf upgrade --allowerasing --refresh to see if that works. It also may be necessary to choose sudo dnf distro-sync --releasever=42 --allowerasing instead (which should ensure all packages installed are for version 42 and not 41)

Once booted to an f42 kernel there may be different results.

@garrethdk I not saw that you also made an upgrade to F42. You might try this from computersavy to fix the upgrade to F42 first.
