I'm using Fedora Workstation 37, Gnome.

While doing dnf upgrade I got these messages:

Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package libheif-freeworld-1.15.1-5.fc37.x86_64 - nothing provides libheif(x86-64) = 1.16.1 needed by libheif-freeworld-1.16.1-1.fc37.x86_64 Problem 2: package libheif-freeworld-1.15.1-5.fc37.x86_64 requires libheif(x86-64) = 1.15.1, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both libheif-1.15.2-1.fc37.x86_64 and libheif-1.15.1-2.fc37.x86_64 - problem with installed package libheif-freeworld-1.15.1-5.fc37.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package libheif-1.15.1-2.fc37.x86_64 - nothing provides libheif(x86-64) = 1.16.1 needed by libheif-freeworld-1.16.1-1.fc37.x86_64

   Skipping packages with conflicts:
(add '--best --allowerasing' to command line to force their upgrade):
    libheif x86_64 1.15.2-1.fc37 updates 258 k
   Skipping packages with broken dependencies:
    libheif-freeworld x86_64 1.16.1-1.fc37 rpmfusion-free-updates 50 k


I tried that suggestion but got this instead:

   sudo dnf update --best --allowerasing

   Error:
Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package libheif-freeworld-1.15.1-5.fc37.x86_64 - problem with installed package libheif-freeworld-1.15.1-5.fc37.x86_64 - nothing provides libheif(x86-64) = 1.16.1 needed by libheif-freeworld-1.16.1-1.fc37.x86_64
   (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)


Rather than skip the problem I thought I'd look at what uses these packages and got this:

   sudo dnf repoquery --whatrequires libheif

Am I right in thinking this means I can just remove libheif-freeworld if it is not used by anything? And then would that fix my upgrade problems?

Thanks,

Simon
