EPEL on RHEL 8.2 broken?

[Richard Shaw <hobbes1069@xxxxxxxxx>]

I requested a CentOS 8 Stream server from IT at $DAYJOB, but it's not IT approved, so they gave me a RHEL 8.2 instance. Well fine, I don't need their support but whatever...

I went to enable EPEL per the docs[1]:

$ sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

$ sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-$(arch)-rpms"

So far so good, now I try a 'sudo dnf --refresh update' and get:

$ sudo dnf --refresh update
Updating Subscription Management repositories.

So I try disabling modular repos:

$ sudo dnf --refresh --disablerepo=epel-modular update
Updating Subscription Management repositories.

Thanks,

Richard
