Hello,
We've just been bit by some libvirt updates in our project (Apache
Cloudstack) which basically broke basic functionality on AlmaLinux 8.4.
I expected the same problem to happen on RockyLinux 8.4, however turns
out the libvirt on this one was an older version and not even "yum
update" changed this.
On closer investigation I noticed Rocky actually ships 5 "virt" modules,
according to "yum module info virt", my Alma test box only ships one,
which is also very up to date.
No actual complaints here, but can someone explain to me why the
discrepancy? Didn't use EL8 much, but expected all "clones" to be more
or less identical, but turns out there are differences that matter.
Thanks

We are converting from CentOS to AlmaLinux, but noticed that AlmaLinux versions
are just 8.5, where CentOS adopted the idea of an extra qualifier representing a
"level" within the version
For example in CentOS 8, you see:
CentOS Linux release 8.5.2111
Could something like that be done in AlmaLinux? It can help identify the
"level" within the release with regards to updates.
Wasn't sure the best place for this, I mean it's not a "bug", it's more like an
enhancement, but not even that.
