I broke some packages and I need help figuring out how to fix it.
I run Nobara and usually update via “Nobara Package Manager”, however it ran into a problem:

Could not depsolve transaction; 1 problem detected:
Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: nobara-amdgpu-config

I found the solution on Nobara projects site: sudo dnf update --exclude=nobara-login --refresh && sudo dnf update --refresh
That did result in several packages begin updated, I just skimmed through the list but I remember some mesa stuff. After a reboot some apps render like in the picture - missing characters or missing text all together and flickering artefacts. I run things pretty out-of-the-box so not sure what I’ve done that has lead up to this, just care about gaming.

How can I troubleshoot this? Thanks in advance

    I had something like this and if I remember correctly it had to do with antialiasing. Try changing that settings

      Turning AA off for fonts solved the missing characters, downside it doesn’t look very good. I still have glitchy artefacts in some menus and the package manager doesn’t display any text for buttons which is a bit problematic. Guessing disabling some more AA settings would remove more of the problems. But it doesn’t solve my main problem - why did AA break in the first place
