      Describe the issue

      As per the YouTube video posted, I tried installing the convert2rhel package:

      yum install convert2rhel

      It errored out as:

      Resolving Dependencies
      --> Running transaction check
      ---> Package convert2rhel.noarch 0:2.0.0-1.el8 will be installed
      --> Processing Dependency: dnf-utils for package: convert2rhel-2.0.0-1.el8.noarch
      --> Processing Dependency: python3-pexpect for package: convert2rhel-2.0.0-1.el8.noarch
      --> Finished Dependency Resolution
      Error: Package: convert2rhel-2.0.0-1.el8.noarch (convert2rhel-for-rhel-8-rpms)
                 Requires: python3-pexpect
      Error: Package: convert2rhel-2.0.0-1.el8.noarch (convert2rhel-for-rhel-8-rpms)
                 Requires: dnf-utils
       You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

      However I am not finding python3-pexpect and dnf-utils packages.  If these are required to be there, the YouTube video should have included the steps for that as well.

      Suggestions for improvement:

      I think you should include steps to install python3-pexpect and dnf-utils packages.

      Additional information:

      I am unable to find the packages anywhere.
