After updating to Fedora 41, I can’t update wine anymore because of broken dependencies.

Here’s what I get after typing sudo dnf update in the terminal:

Let me know If there’s anything else I can provide that is useful, thanks.

Could be the WineHQ repo is causing you problems. I always had problems with WineHQ and Fedora. Try removing your WineHQ wine staging package (along with the WineHQ repository) and just use Fedora’s wine staging package instead. Probably not what you want (Fedora 41 was at wine staging 9.15 last time I tried it) but worth a try to see if that clears up the conflicts.

I’d make sure your WineHQ repo is pointing at Fedora 41; guessing but maybe it was hard-coded to 40/previous before upgrading, and F41 has different dependencies.
