KDE Plasma users - beware of new qt6-qtwayland version 6.9.1-2 (breaks lockscreen, may cause app crashes)

UPDATE: a “new” version of the package, 6.9.1-3, has now been released. This is in effect identical to 6.9.1-1: it reverts the change from the problematic 6.9.1-2.

So a normal sudo dnf upgrade --refresh should now resolve the issue.


Historical information: the below was the temporary workaround from before 6.9.1-3 was released

If you need to downgrade, you can:

sudo dnf install fedora-repos-archive
sudo dnf config-manager setopt updates-archive.enabled=0

sudo dnf downgrade qt6-qtwayland-6.9.1-1.fc42 --enablerepo updates-archive
