I’ve been using Kinoite since late last year and it has been working great up until a few days ago. Now I get the same error message every time I try to run a “rpm-ostree upgrade” or try to update in KDE’s Discover. Any help as to what’s going on would be appreciated, the error looks like this:

Hello @fed-acc and welcome to :fedora: !

TL;DR:
This probably only impacts people with locally overlayed packages.

Two options:

  1. Reset all overlays, update, re-apply overlays
  2. Override rpm-ostree on current deployment from the update, update, remove override (if needed)

See also Error: Package 'glibc' has (currently) unsupported <lua> script in '%posttrans'.

The update to glibc-2.41-8.fc42 should address this issue. Thank you for your patience.

The problem went away when I uninstalled LACT which was installed as an overlayed package.
