Reopen Issue

I rebased to F43 Kinoite Beta and hit this error when running rpm-ostree update

error: failed to add subkeys for /var/cache/rpm-ostree/repomd/google-chrome-43-x86_64/linux_signing_key.pub to rpmdb

Found a workaround for this issue.

  1. Disable google-chrome repository
  2. Do rpm-ostree cleanup --repomd

And rpm-ostree update now works again.
