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

    Don’t use “dnf update”, just “sudo nobara-sync”.

    It’s not a problem because the update script automatically skips the other GPU packages. Uninstalling it would be an issue because some nobara packages depend on it.

      I used the commands OP provided, which is also what’s been posted on the official page and it seemed to have worked without issues for me. At least in regards to me not having any graphical issues.
