indeed, it seems to be related to 9.4 rollout, as the 1rst server where it happens is now in 9.4,
it upgraded because I did --allowerasing which removed network-scripts-10.11.5-1.el9.x86_64

but still this morning on 9.3 , after a dnf clean all I have the same error [1] , is it a question a cache / metadataExpire which seems to be 24H [2] ?

one the server that moved to 9.4 , I cannot reinstall network-scripts , I have to configure manually the network after reboot (ip addr add, ip route add ...)
how can I recover network-scripts ?

thanks .

Objet: Re: [AlmaLinux Users] package broken, initscripts-10.11.6-1.el9 brakes network-scripts-10.11.5

I bet you were trying this during the 9.4 rollout this morning.

Do a `dnf clean all` and try another update and I bet you'll find yourself on 9.4 ;)

if I do a --allowerasing, update does proceed but it removes package  network-scripts-10.11.5-1.el9.x86_64

then, at next reboot network is not configured anymore, indeed networks-scripts (ifup ...) is not there anymore

did someone broke something in packages dependencies ?

thanks .
