Description of problem: When trying to install multiple errata for same package or with shared deps, is possible that two deps collide, causing the failure in the installation of the errata. Example below is done on a RHEL 8.2, as per customer scenario: # yum update-minimal --advisory=RHSA-2022:2092 --advisory=RHSA-2021:2359 Updating Subscription Management repositories. This system is registered to Red Hat Subscription Management, but is not receiving updates. You can use subscription-manager to assign subscriptions.
