(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)


It should have baseos and appstream for a proper installation of the host:
subscription-manager repos \
--disable='*' \
--enable=rhv-4-mgmt-agent-for-rhel-8-ppc64le-rpms \
--enable=advanced-virt-for-rhel-8-ppc64le-rpms \
--enable=ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-ppc64le-rpms \
--enable=rhel-8-for-ppc64le-baseos-rpms \
--enable=rhel-8-for-ppc64le-appstream-rpms

After this everything went normal.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHV 4.4.1

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to install ovirt-host package with the repos on the documentation.
2. Fail

Actual results:

Expected results:
