(Solved) Fedora 41 --- Installation: "Problem occurred when opening the package"

[duhr]

Hi All,

I would have wanted to reinstall Insync on Fedora 41 but there seems to be issues with processing the downloaded package. It happens even if I delete the folder in the error message below and try from scratch.

Would anyone have any advice for me how to proceed?

Thank you!

I guess I should have make a more thorough search here, on the forum as the issue has already been addressed in another topic. Anyway, adding the solution here in case others may need it:

Fedora 41 insync repo failure [Repo update TBA]

So, rpm -e gpg-pubkey-accaf35c-504d6503 does the trick: it removes the key with the old signature and allows the update to bring along the key with the new signature.

Not a problem, @duhr! We appreciate that you posted it here as it makes the issue more visible for us to address so it doesn’t happen again in the future.
