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.
I don't know what's going on, but RHEL and CentOS Stream 8 only have a virt:rhel stream, so there shouldn't be such weird modules. AlmaLinux only has virt:rhel, just like RHEL itself. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!
