Clear and concise description of the problem

Installing Anytype on such OSes works, as you can include the RPM package as overlay.
But as soon as Anytype tries to update to the latest version, the issued update command fails silently, because updates on systems with rpm-ostree must be done through the rpm-ostree utility, e.g. in this case:

rpm-ostree cleanup -m && rpm-ostree install /path/to/anytype.rpm

Suggested solution

Ideally Anytype detects if it is installed with rpm-ostree (or check if the system is using rpm-ostree) and upgrades itself through rpm-ostree.

Alternative
