Hi all,

I have a warning that my system doesn’t update for a month and i can update it manually.

When i run a manual update i have this error :

➜ sudo rpm-ostree upgrade

I try to reinstall gnome-shell-extension-appindicator-61-1.fc43.noarch, “override reset -a”, “rpm-ostree reset” but that are not effect.

Any ideas to resolv it ?

Here my rpm-ostree status :

You need to remove layered packages. Layering packages can prevent updates. Not all layered packages causes this issue, but you have several of them and I’m almost sure is the root cause of the problem.
