Rpm-ostree fails update when running %post scripts

Project Discussion
1

I’ve been running into the following error when running rpm-ostree update on F34 Silverblue. It looks similar to the issue users were running into with libsolv a few months ago, but I’m using a newer version of rpm-ostree. Is there a workaround for this? Alternatively, is there a way to disable the %post scripts for the given package? It’s not something that I expect to need to update, and if it is I’ll probably have to do it manually.

You can workaround that by noting what packages you have overlayed, then doing a reset, updating and then re-overlaying them. I would recommend extracting the configuration and certs from this package and installing them manually in /etc (that’s what I personally do as they won’t get updated with the RPM anyway).
