OK, I forgot that there is one other step.
For many EPEL packages (including KDE) you have to also enable the
codeready-builder (RHEL) or PowerTools (CentOS)
#### If RHEL 8 do
subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms
#### If CentOS 8 do
dnf config-manager --enable PowerTools
#### If CentOS Stream do
dnf config-manager --enable Stream-PowerTools
It looks like that should fix your problem.
