Gstreamer1 error message when attempting update

Ask Fedora
1

Fedora 42, KDE, was last updated 3 or 4 days ago with no errors (updates have never before produced any errors, all the way back to F32. Always done CLI, as Discover never finishes.)

In Konsole I use sudo dnf --refresh upgrade

It produced the following error message, which I have never seen before:

Problem 1: installed package gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld-1:1.26.2-1.fc42.x86_64 conflicts with gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld < 1:1.26.2-2 provided by gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-1.26.2-2.fc42.x86_64 from updates

So I bailed (did not do the update) and came here to ask: What should I do about this?

I see that KDE 6.4 is here so I would like to resolve this so I can do the update!

Thanks, all.

wait or use rpmfusion testing

Thanks, I’ll wait a few days. Would rather not mess anything up.

I enabled the free testing repo and updated gstreamer with no issue or error.I then disabled it and used dnf upgrade --refresh and again no error.
