      In RHEL9 ,yum/dnf install flatpak fails with the below error.

      Error: 
       Problem: problem with installed package selinux-policy-targeted-38.1.35-2.el9_4.noarch
        - package flatpak-1.12.9-1.el9_4.x86_64 from rhel-9-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms requires (flatpak-selinux = 1.12.9-1.el9_4 if selinux-policy-targeted), but none of the providers can be installed
        - cannot install the best candidate for the job
        - nothing provides selinux-policy >= 38.1.35-2.el9_4.2 needed by flatpak-selinux-1.12.9-1.el9_4.noarch from rhel-9-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms
        - nothing provides selinux-policy-base >= 38.1.35-2.el9_4.2 needed by flatpak-selinux-1.12.9-1.el9_4.noarch from rhel-9-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms
      (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) 

       

      Reproducer Steps:

      1. On RHEL9.4 system fetching update form CDn/Satellite  try to install 'flatpak '
      2.  The latest  `flatpak-1.12.9-1.el9_4.x86_64` has broken dependencies.

       

      Diagnostics:

      The latest flatpak-1.12.9-1.el9_4.x86_64 needs flatpak-selinux = 1.12.9-1.el9_4

      
      #rpm -qpR flatpak-1.12.9-1.el9_4.x86_64.rpm |grep selin
      (flatpak-selinux = 1.12.9-1.el9_4 if selinux-policy-targeted)
      
      

       

      // flatpak-selinux = 1.12.9-1.el9_4 needs selinux-policy >= 38.1.35-2.el9_4.2 which is not available
