Try running both pkcon update and then apt update; apt full-upgrade. Please let me know if that helped.

It's done and didn't change anything, but I think I finally know why : running apt list --upgradable reveals the one outdated package is xdg-desktop-portal, which I used apt-mark hold on because of an issue preventing screen capture/sharing from working that affects even the latest version.

What to do ?

Thanks

Sorry, I don't really have an easy answer for you. First, don't hold packages, of course that always leads to problems. Especially for release upgrades. Then try to get fully up to date, and if the release upgrade doesn't work after that it might make more sense to reinstall. In that case backup your /home, reinstall the system, and restore your home.

That's what saves me from a problem, in this case.

Well, don't. Chances are your problem is fixed upstream, and if it really isn't then wait before upgrading.

Yes it really still isn't, that's the thing. And it's been a while already, so I suspect I'll be waiting a while longer.
