I just did it. You're in for a reboot. That's about it, unless you layered a bunch of stuff.

I maaaay have layered some stuff that I couldn't find flatpaks for. ๐Ÿฅบ

I used to have issues with like rpmfusion repos and the like, worst case you may need to now the packages you have layered, do an rpm-ostree reset, upgrade, then layer the packages again. There's a way to install the rpmfusion repos that didn't break updates, I forget if they've updated the docs on the site to use it, I stopped layering almost everything in favor of flatpak or toolbx.

It won't matter of you layered a bunch of stuff

[โ€“] bruhbeans@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It will if the repos are specific to a fedora release version. That's been a thing with rpmfusion in the past, not sure it still is.

If you are using the officially supported repos you are fine. If are not using official repos I would strongly suggest that you do.

Any external software should be installed in a container (ideally) or in a VM.
