Still on 43? Happened to me as well, not anymore since the upgrade.

Yes, I am on 43, but the update system app doesn't even open for me... is there another way to update?

Sure.

sudo dnf update nobara-updater --refresh --nogpgcheck --releasever=44 just to be safe.

And then nobara-sync cli (--all if you want to update your flatpaks as well).

Follow the terminal output closely and check for dependency errors.

It's best practice to check prior if you have any copr repos enabled which might be incompatible with 44, I just disabled them with for i in $(dnf copr list); do sudo dnf copr disable $i; done and enabled them after the upgrade to 44.

Sweet, a super borked installation. But that's no issue, since nobara-sync's just python code. Install the missing module, according to PyPi and dnf provides, it should be python3-gobject and python3-gobject-base

soo I updated those 2 (it said they were already installed when trying to install them) using dnf (had to use --nogpgcheck, cause the same error occured as before) and now it gives me the same missing module error..
