Transcript of update problems
Hi Everyone,
I'm running Fedora 38 with the KDE spin. Recently, powerdevil and libddcutil
can no longer update. I think this started on Sunday night, Nov 12, 2023.
I believe something is a bit sideways with the latest updates to powerdevil and
libddcutil . It looks like the problem is with libddcutil-2.0.0. I think F38
should only supply libddcutil-1.4.1. Maybe F39 can supply libddcutil-2.0.0, but
I don't know for sure. It also looks like there's been some activity lately for
powerdevil and libddcutil: <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476375>.
I don't know how to fix the problems with official repos providing wrong
versions of software, so I have to report it. Sorry about that.
(This is actually holding up my dnf-system-upgrade from Fedora 38 to Fedora
39).
