Hi, I have the latest Bazzite Gnome OS on my PC and need to setup a Distrobox container to run Brave Origin from. I loaded Package fedora-toolbox · GitHub but when I checked the version it’s Fedora version 42. Why is it such an old version? I thought since I picked this image and it said “latest” that it would have the latest version of Fedora and always keep it at the latest version. Is that not correct?
ghcr.io/ublue-os/fedora-toolbox:latest was just updated to Fedora 44 a few days ago, but your container is not updated automatically.
To use the latest version, you need pull the new image first, and then create a new container (and install packages in the new container).
Or try this:
Thank you for the information. Is there a way to manually update the container to version 44?
Not from within the container.
Basically you can use DistroShelf to create a new Distrobox container, which should be the same as doing:
distrobox create --pull --name fedora-toolbox --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/fedora-toolbox:latest
# and install packages in the new Distrobox container
# to remove the old fedora-toolbox image
podman image prune
Yes, that’s what I thought I would have to do. Thank you for your replies.
