RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This looks like an issue in yum for me. IPA packages on fedora are named freeipa-server, freeipa-client etc... while in RHEL they are named ipa-server, ipa-client etc...
ipa.spec defines on purpose conflicts with freeipa-* packages from fedora:
%global alt_name freeipa
Provides: %{alt_name}-server = %{version}
Conflicts: %{alt_name}-server
Obsoletes: %{alt_name}-server < %{version}
It looks like yum is not able to handle this situation, hence moving this issue to yum component.
Looks that this is the problem
# rpm -q --provides ipa-client-common
config(ipa-client-common) = 4.6.4-10.el7
freeipa-client-common = 4.6.4
ipa-client-common = 4.6.4-10.el7
# rpm -q --conflicts ipa-client-common
freeipa-client-common
on reinstall the package conflicts with its own provides. yum should not be considering such conflicts valid.
Which yum version is this? The issue has been fixed in yum-3.4.3-154.el7 shipped with RHEL-7.4. Could you please update yum to that version and try again?
OK, I can reproduce this. Turns out the previous fix (bug 1370134) only covers some code paths (such as "yum check") but not this one. We'll consider this for 7.7.

*** Bug 1653364 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
That'd be an rpm bug. There's an unhandled corner-case with self-conflicts on (re)installation of already installed packages and that affects upstream rpm too. I've a preliminary fix for this, and what I have now is not an intrusive patch so it could be considered for rhel-7:
3 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
Now I'll just need to mull over it a bit to understand whether this fix is actually the right thing to do, there are a few different approaches possible and it's all a bit subtle.
