Yep!! It is a pita when trying to get things running for the first time.
I started this journey on a couple samba DC's before the Red Hat
announcement.
Libraries are almost always different names but even common packages
like dhcp
and bind have different names, configuration files and commands to do
the same
thing. Most of it is not that hard to figure out but it does take time
to do it and it is a lot more work than going from CentOS 7 to CentOS 8.

Maybe I'm just weird, but I don't find naming differences to be big
differences. Like I keep telling optical astronomers, radio astronomy
is just observing at another wavelength; I get a lot of mean looks when
I say that, too. It's all light, why are humans so special that our
three sensory passbands centered around 450nm, 540nm, and 575nm should
be so important? Why is the 400nm-700nm band more important than say
1000nm to 1700nm other than human eyes' sensitivities? Package naming
is syntactic sugar, no more and no less, IMHO.
There is a small peak around 437+-2nm that has an impact on your
eyes (photochemical risk). I would take care of this 5nm band!
