So I am trying out fedora silverblue and recently rebased it to uBlue to get access to hardware decoding for non-free codecs and for some QoL improvements. Before rebasing, I used to get both system updates(update to image that silverblue is based on) and flatpak updates through the gui package manager(gnome-software in this case) but since i rebased, i was not getting any notifications for system updates. I ran rpm-ostree upgrade and then it pulled from the manifest and updated the system using the updated image. For some reason gnome-software did not know this new image was available.
My question is does this mean that i will have to run rpm-ostree upgrade to update from now or will gnome-software handle it? I have no problem using the terminal but gnome-software is more convenient and I am lazy.
Does that work even for the OCI images that ublue uses¿? Also can we configure this further. I don’t want to accidentally update my image when on a metered connection.
Someone just merged some shortcuts to let you turn them on and off easier: https://github.com/ublue-os/config/commit/0823567237f8d83a50a75e9a7cd15c7c9d758d22
Cool. People are amazing
I only used ublue images for a little bit but on the one which offered xfce at that time it was available. I think it’s part of the main image design, so I see no reason it not being available. You can easily check tho.
