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.

Hmmmm.... This is not the proper fix for the upgrade scenario in comment 0
https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/pull/2327/files

The proper fix should have made subscription-manager require an exact version of python3-syspurpose and left python3-syspurpose requirements as-is (without requiring subscription-manager).

Expected Results...
[root@kvm-06-guest24 ~]# rpm -q python3-syspurpose --requires | grep subscription-manager
[root@kvm-06-guest24 ~]#                <========== EXPECTED NO REQUIREMENT ON subscription-manager
[root@kvm-06-guest24 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager --requires | grep python3-syspurpose
python3-syspurpose = 1.28.5-1.el8       <========== EXPECTED subscription-manager TO REQUIRE VERSION 1.28.5-1.el8 OF python3-syspurpose
[root@kvm-06-guest24 ~]# 

Moving this bug back to NEW/FailedQA and I expect the change in https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/pull/2327/files to be reverted and the proper fix to be "subscription-manager rpm should require an exact version of python3-syspurpose rpm".

VERIFIED: the expected required package dependencies for subscription-manager now requires an exact version of python3-syspurpose.  In the scenario defined in comment 0, this dependency will now force the upgrade of python3-syspurpose to follow when a user does "yum upgrade subscription-manager*" and prevent he failed load_entry_point.
