How to deal with outdated packages on the fedora repository (rpm)?
How to deal with outdated packages on the fedora repository (rpm)?
I'm on fedora Silverblue and just saw that firefox is still on 118 whereas 120 is about to be released.
I found https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/firefox which says that on fedora 39 firefox is on 119 yet it isn't on my machine.

Somehow there's a .desktop file clash which I can't resolve
I rebased to rawhide for now where firefox is on 120
1 0 ReplyThere's a command to hide the Silverblue/RPM of Firefox & change your default browser to the Flatpak’d Firefox in GNOME settings:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/applications/ sudo cp /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop /usr/local/share/applications/ sudo sed -i "2a\\NotShowIn=GNOME;KDE" /usr/local/share/applications/firefox.desktop sudo update-desktop-database /usr/local/share/applications/
Or can remove Firefox and Firefox Language Packs as a custom layer:
rpm-ostree override remove firefox-langpacks firefox
Universal Blue images remove it from the image entirely and has FF flatpak out of box.2 0 Reply
