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 .

Do a `dnf clean all` and try another update and I bet you'll find yourself on 9.4 ;) On Mon, May 6, 2024 at 7:05 PM jehan Procaccia < [ mailto:jehan.procaccia@imtbs-tsp.eu | jehan.procaccia@imtbs-tsp.eu ] > wrote: Hi since few hours (it worked fine yesterday at least) , a dnf update on different of my alma 9.3 systems fails with this error # dnf update Last metadata expiration check: 2:03:50 ago on Mon 06 May 2024 08:26:51 PM CEST.
