DNF - how to apply fixes?

Whenever I do sudo dnf update I get notice that there are bug fixes and security fixes notices, So I did update-info info command and it shows me that I can update gstreamer, than some possible bug regarding qt network packages which also somehow include deepin-qt packages? And some kde frameworks bugfixes, my question is how do I apply them? And do I have to? I am fairly new to linux and still learn how the packaging system even works, the system works fine outside of some kde related bugs, but last time I ignored the terminal warnings on Linux my system crashed , I tried to search for command using dnf -help but I am either blind or there should be some other way

can we please see the ouput of sudo dnf update to better understand what you mean and what the error/warning says?

Please post it as Preformatted Text.

There it is, thank you so much for a quick reply

This problems occurs all the time, one answer to your problem is here: Qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld and the upgrade to f38 - #2 by chrisawi

Just remove the qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld package: sudo dnf remove qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld .

Ok, so I just tried that and it worked, I had troubles finding the solution in google when entering the mistake, probably because I entered too much of the terminal input at once, In general I guess I should be searching for the package name first, thank you for your help and the link to search for problems on the forum. Will be using that next time.
