Environment:

• OS: Ublue Aurora [Fedora 41 Atomic]
• Desktop Environment: [KDE]

Additional context The application is layered into the rpm-ostree. It comes from the Fedora 41 COPR

@celsomiranda The solution is to download the RPM package, which includes the GUI component, from the latest release.

I ran into this same issue on Bluefin, I'd installed the package via the copr repository as well. It was yesterday before the 2.4.6-1 build was added. Installing the rpm from the GitHub releases fixed the problem. Is it recommended to use the rpm from GitHub instead of the copr?

[yuezk]

Hi @skymoo, yes, it is expected. For an immutable system like Bluefin/Kinoite, it cannot download the GUI component dynamically. So the copr won't work. Just use the RPM package from the GitHub release page.
