Unable to install Rstudio on fresh Fedora 35 upgrade

Firstly, _thank you_ for making RStudio available as a Fedora RPM!  This is a dream come true for me.

Sadly, I have run into problems. I upgraded from Fedora 34 to Fedora 35 this morning, and found that my existing installation of RStudio (download from rstudio.com) opens the main window but no contents; the menus appear but are not clickable; and the main window is unresponsive also (can't be closed) and so I had to use xkill to close it.

When googling for help, I found that Fedora now includes RStudio!  Oh, the joy I felt.

But when I went to install, I got the following.


$ dnf install rstudio-desktop

Error:
Problem: conflicting requests
- package rstudio-desktop-1.4.1717-4.fc35.x86_64 requires rstudio(x86-64) = 1.4.1717-4.fc35, but none of the providers can be installed
- package rstudio-desktop-2021.09.0+351-2.fc35.x86_64 requires rstudio(x86-64) = 2021.09.0+351-2.fc35, but none of the providers can be installed

- package rstudio-2021.09.0+351-2.fc35.x86_64 is filtered out by exclude filtering
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)


Any clues?

Thanks again for making more R goodness available on Fedora,

John

RStudio-official (RStudio downloaded from rstudio.com) and
rstudio-desktop from Fedora repos are not compatible. Uninstall
RStudio-official first and then install rstudio-desktop.
