F43.Beta - Recent update has many package conflicts

Greetings lovely community,

I decided to test the waters today and updated in place from F42 Gnome to the F43.Beta Gnome workstation via the Gnome Software app. Usually I run it in the terminal, but tried Gnome Software, and overall the update was solid and problem free. Though being an update to an already established system, intel and nvidia already work just fine as well on my laptop. Had I opted for a fresh install, I can’t say for certain if my experience would have been the same, but just happy to test out and help if I can.

I just ran an update tonight and was curious if this is one of those situations were RPMFusion is a little delayed because I got 5 problems that showed up. Below is the log file. I assume I should probably wait a few days for the repos to be updated, but since I’m on the beta I don’t know if that changes anything.

Feel free to let me know if there’s anything I could do, whether I just wait it out, update anyways, or use some –allowraising command. Appreciate any help, thank you.

I doubt it will get fixed quickly, it wasn’t very bright to push this to testing 1 day before the final freeze on Tuesday.

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-eeaf975a29

rpmfusion can’t build against it until the fedora update hits stable repo.

Maybe disable fedora updates-testing to workaround the issue.

Off-topic, but could you check why intel-media-driver-25.3.4-1.fc43 disappeared from rpmfusion? I noticed a downgrade in my custom rpm-ostree builds.

I get same issue too on Fedora 43 prerelease

It looks like the push script failed and moved it to updates by mistake

Fixed, it will take a few hours for the mirrors to sync.

Yeah, it’s that time of the (half-)year again when we have two types of updates in updates-testing:

  1. updates which are “stable but frozen” (stable criteria met but freeze in place)
  2. updates still being tested

Early adopters have to choose between missing out on important fixes from 1. (updates-testing disabled) or getting testing updates from 2. early (updates-testing enabled). The latter would be the much safer approach if it weren’t for rpmfusion, which can build against updates only (not updates-testing).

One could claim that that’s what you get for being early; on the other hand, it;s a valuable source of user feedback.

I wonder if it would make sense for rpmfusion to have some form of rpmfusion-updates-testing-testing which builds against updates-testing, a bit like EPEL builds against CentOS-stream rather than RHEL. I know, resources… Alternatively, an updates-tested or updates-stable repo for Fedora which “stable pushes” go to during freeze. This could serve both as an update repo for early adopters and as something rpmfusion can build against, especially to prepare zero day updates (day of release).
