How does Brave Origin get updated after being added to an image?

[ToughDBlue]

I successfully added Brave Origin to the recipe.yml file and rebased Bazzite to my image. Works great, but I noticed Brave Origin doesn't update and when I do a System Update it does not update either. How do I get Brave Origin to update now?

Brave Origin should update when you update your system, as it is now part of your system. I see nothing indicating that the updates should not be working in your recipe or repository. However, you had quite a few failed action runs recently, which means your custom image did not build, and you did not get any updates during that time. The latest commit seems to have fixed things.

Also note that dnf is currently the recommended module to use for installing rpm packages on Fedora images. You seem to have tried both. I mean, whatever works works, but if you were encountering a specific issue with the dnf module that made you switch away from it, feel free to share.

Edit:

Actually, since you're running this

  - type: script
    snippets:
      - "curl -fsS https://dl.brave.com/install.sh | FLAVOR=origin CHANNEL=nightly sh"

The whole rpm-ostree (and dnf) steps are irrelevant, because the script supplied by Brave already does the same things. You can pretty much just remove the rpm-ostree step from your recipe and I believe it would not change a thing.

Yeah I was trying different things to trigger an update. Brave Origin has several nightly builds during the day and it wasn't updating to them, but after further research I found out that the devs only release those to their Github releases page and only once a day are the nightly published to the public. So I think that explains why my image has not picked up a new Brave Origin nightly build. Correct me if I'm wrong there.
If I'm correct I'll go back to what I had before with just the dnf entry and remove the script.

Edit: Brave Origin updated when I ran a System Update. :)
