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.

Description Pavel Holica 2022-12-13 09:22:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
dnf-plugins-core has broken dependencies in RHEL-8

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-8.8.0-20221213.0
python3-dnf-plugins-core-4.0.21-17.el8

Steps to Reproduce:
Run dnf repoclosure for mentioned packages

Actual results:
package: python3-dnf-plugins-core-4.0.21-17.el8.noarch from BaseOS
unresolved deps:
python3-distro


Expected results:
No broken dependencies

Additional notes:
This bug was generated by RTT semiautomatic reporting workflow

The problem is that the python3-distro is available in AppStream repository and not in BaseOS repository.

Although the BaseOS without AppStream repository is not strictly supported, this dependency issue prevents to perform any installation with just BaseOS repository as minimal installation crashes with following unresolved dependency error:

Error     
The following software marked for installation has errors. 
This is likely caused by an error with your installation source.     
 Problem 1: package dnf-plugins-core-4.0.21-17.el8.noarch requires python3-dnf- 
plugins-core = 4.0.21-17.el8, but none of the providers can be installed 
  - conflicting requests 
  - nothing provides python3-distro needed by python3-dnf-plugins- 
core-4.0.21-17.el8.noarch 
 Problem 2: package subscription-manager-1.28.34-1.el8.x86_64 requires dnf- 
plugin-subscription-manager = 1.28.34, but none of the providers can be 
installed 
  - package dnf-plugin-subscription-manager-1.28.34-1.el8.x86_64 requires 
python3-dnf-plugins-core, but none of the providers can be installed 
  - conflicting requests 
  - nothing provides python3-distro needed by python3-dnf-plugins- 
core-4.0.21-17.el8.noarch
