I think this will fix it: https://github.com/weldr/lorax/pull/1210 (currently untested though) lorax-28.14.68-1.el8 is included in RHEL-8.6.0-20220215.2. Moving to VERIFIED. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
