Hi,

I have exactly the same issue, although I don’t use KDE but Cinnamon.
There is a conflict between gstreamer1 packages in official Fedora repos and in the RPM Fusion repos.

I agree with @leigh123linux and hope this conflict will be resolved by the maintainers ASAP, so I’m waiting.

The conflict was resolved for me when I ran an update a few minutes ago.

Still not resolved for me:

$ sudo dnf clean all

Nothing to do.

It will depend on when your local repository mirror gets refreshed with the latest updates, which might take a few more hours.

It’s in the testing repo.

This worked for me. Thanks.
In zsh, we need to format the command slightly different

sudo dnf update '--enable-repo=r*g' 'gstreamer1-*'
9

You should always quote the wildcards when referromg to package or repository names regardless of which shell you are using. Otherwise, if, for example, r*g matches one of the files in the current directory, the name(s) of those file(s) will replace r*g.

10

And looks like it’s in rpmfusion-free-updates now, at least on the mirror I’m using.

So a normal sudo dnf --refresh update works fine without conflicts now.
