Description of problem:

System is not picking up the latest packages when trying to fetch the update from repository whe installing "ipa-client" and "idm:DL1" module

This create problem when updating system connected to local repository created using reposync with the "--newest" option as it only contains the newest version of package.

Firstly to demostrate , below output collected when the system is connected to CDN which also show this problem where new version of "sssd" and "python3-libsemanage" is not picked up by RHEL 8.7 system even when it has the latest version of DNF and livsolve. While on RHEL 8 , it able to pick latest version of "sssd" but not the latest version of "python3-libsemange"

ON RHEL 8.8 system (with updated dnf/libsolv packages)
-------------------

Now with system connected to CDN it fine that it is able to pull the old version of pacakge.
However if the system is fetching updates form local repository which is created with reposync with the "--newest --delete" option, it fails as the old version of package is not present in the repository.

Create local repository using below command which will download latest packages i.e. 8.8 package and delete oldversion of packages and shared it over HTTP,

dnf reposync -n --download-metadata -p /var/www/html/scratch --repoid=rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms --repoid=rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms --delete

Demostating the issue with local repos created like above we see that because its trying to fetch old version of packages , it fails to find it in repo.

RHEL 8.8(Local repos) (8.7 is installed with latest dnf/libsolv packages)

The user is pursuving this option i.e. reposync with "--newest --delete" because their system are offline and they need to ship the repo to their offline location and want to use a small size beacuse they have restirction on size and can't ship entire repo with all packages.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rpm -aq | grep -e dnf -e libsolv | sort

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a fresh minimal install RHEL 8.7 and RHEL 8.8 system and subscribe to CDN.

2. Remove packages for "ipa-client", "sssd" , "python3-libsemanage" , "krb5-pkinit" or "policycoreutils-python-utils" if they are already present as we want to see these being pulled in dependencies when they are not installed by default.

dnf remove ipa-client sssd python3-libsemanage krb5-pkinit policycoreutils-python-utils

3. Update "dnf" and "libsolv" to the latest version.

dnf update dnf livsolv

4. Try installing "ipa-client" or "idm:DL1" module and see the dependecies it pick will be the old ones.

dnf install ipa-client --assumeno | grep -i -e ipa-client -e sssd -e python3-libsemanage -e krb5-pkinit -e policycoreutils-python-utils

dnf module install idm:DL1 --assumeno | grep -i -e ipa-client -e sssd -e python3-libsemanage -e krb5-pkinit -e policycoreutils-python-utils

dnf list ipa-client sssd python3-libsemanage krb5-pkinit policycoreutils-python-utils

dnf install ipa-client sssd python3-libsemanage krb5-pkinit policycoreutils-python-utils --assumeno | grep -i -e ipa-client -e sssd -e python3-libsemanage -e krb5-pkinit -e policycoreutils-python-utils

Actual results:
Can't explain the behavior of dnf as to why it pick old packages sometime.
Also behavior is different in RHEL 8.7 and RHEL 8.8 with same version of dnf.
We expect it pick newest available package in the repository.

Expected results:
We expect that it will pull the latest package available form the repository.
This will help in uses cases where local repository is setup with reposync with "-~~newest" and "~~-delete" option so as to keep the size of the repo small.

Additional info:
Earlier we had this libsolv bug for a similar issue but it was resolved and hence I have used newest available libsolv in test on RHEL 8.7 and RHEL 8.8 but still see old package being pulled.
