Also, as I reinstall a flathub version of LibreOffice, should I choose the Fedora repo or Flathub repo?

It worked! I uninstalled dnf-automatic, libreoffice, and rpmfusion and then restarted.

Thanks for your help! Will keep your tips in mind for the future and try to avoid layering.

So basically it's not allowing me to update because of these layered packages and every time I want to update, I have to uninstall them and reinstall after I update?

Problem is I don't know what the packages are or what they were for even. I don't recall installing them.

I have two entries each with a different BaseCommit. One has dnf-automatic, libreoffice, vpn app. The other has the same three plus rpmfusion-free-release and rpmfusion-nonfree-release.

I just recently installed the rpmfusion packages but I didn't know what I was doing. Just found something online suggesting an alternative update method for Silverblue.

Thank you for the thorough explanation. It makes sense to me why I had the error that I did. I'll keep this in mind next time when I consider using a bitwise operator.

Thank you for the reply. It seems bitwise operators are somewhat of an advanced concept that I may revisit down the road.

Thanks. I think I understand why I wouldn't want to use it in this case. But what is an example of where I can use it? This makes me think I should avoid using bitwise operators with integers and keep it to strings only, but I know that's not true from what I've learned.

Thank you. Not sure why in the link the arithmetic in green results in 7.

Thank you for breaking it down.

I'm just now sure when it is appropriate to use '|'. If bitwise operators can only be used with integers (and not floats), what's an example where I can use it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Yes I did eventually think of that as well but just wanted to understand why '|' wasn't producing the results I expected.
