I want to install plasma-workspace-x11 under F40, but it gives a conflict that I don’t know how to solve.
The system is up-to-date:

(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
If I run the dnf command with --allowerasing
, it wants to downgrade 365 packages, including okular, kate, dolphin, VirtualBox. I can’t imagine that this is the right thing to do. In addition, packages kwin-x11 and plasma-workspace-x11 are marked as broken, so it won’t solve the problem.
