    Description

      When convert2rhel proceeds, it downloads the subscription-manager and its dependencies from

      https://cdn-ubi.redhat.com/content/public/ubi/dist/ubi8/8/x86_64/baseos/os/Packages/s/

      Seems like there is some recent modification(21 Nov 2023) to repo as a result we now have two subscription-manager-rhsm-certificates packages of different version.

      Both the version packages are downloaded under /usr/share/convert2rhel/subscription-manager/

      Now when packages under /usr/share/convert2rhel/subscription-manager/   are installed  subscription-manager-rhsm-certificates of different version conflict with each other, resulting in conversion failure.

      Current workaround:

      Manually install latest subscription-manager-rhsm-certificates-1.28.36-3.el8_8.x86_64.rpm version

      Action required:

      Remove subscription-manager-rhsm-certificates-20220623-1.el8.noarch.rpm package from  https://cdn-ubi.redhat.com/content/public/ubi/dist/ubi8/8/x86_64/baseos/os/Packages/s/ 

       

      Here are the logs from my test system:
