How to remove bazzite system packages like discover-overlay or terminal to replace with black box
Hey,
Really liking the fact that installing any dnf is tracked and can be removed to revert to previous state
Although I see bazzite comes with a lot of programs preinstalled, and I would love to configure it more to change some defaults and remove some other packages
rpm-ostree seems like it's not able to remove some packages neither to install because of some weird issues like this
Also update packages, like winetricks, I see you're using 2023 when 2024 is released, there are many more examples like this
Any idea/best practice for how to do this?

If you want to remove packages, you’d likely need to fork the image
Removing packages with rpm-ostree doesn't really remove them. Would be an equivalent to a layer where you have package files removed, but the underneath layers are still there.
Thus , removing then won't give any space back, increasing the space used sometimes.
As for winetricks from 2023, you are not supposed to use it. Rather, to utilize other programs to setup wine prefixes (like Lutris, heroic launcher, bottles, etc) which setup updated versions of winetricks in their own prefix
Protontricks for Steam too
