hi
I have no idea how fedora binary repositories work...but you can always use the AppImage version. The last one is: https://github.com/robert7/nixnote2/releases/download/v2.1.6/NixNote2-x86_64.AppImage

info: https://github.com/robert7/nixnote2/wiki/HowTo---Run-AppImage

btw you are reporting the problem in the wrong repository - this one is upstream, but dead
but my repository is also out of maintenance... but the current binaries should work quite OK

[robert7]

the App image version will pickup the same data which you used before with system packages; no extra action needed from your side

the AppImage version has the tidy library embedded - so this solves your problem of missing library

there is a bit explanation here: https://github.com/robert7/nixnote2/wiki/HowTo---What-to-do-if-the-app-crashes

HI @premier69

A new RPM was generated, you can try again the installation.
