Hi guys,
I've just retried patching the host as we speak with no luck, I am getting the exact same thing.
Following Devrim's guidance i've manually upgraded the repo file that came down via dnf and still getting the mismatch error:
Error: Transaction test error:
file /usr/share/pgsql/postgres.bki from install of libpq5-17.0-42PGDG.rhel9.x86_64 conflicts with file from package postgresql-server-15.8-1.module+el9.4.0+25512+c6b50a48.x86_64

Any ideas?

From here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq.html
"libpq is the C application programmer's interface to PostgreSQL. libpq
is a set of library functions that allow client programs to pass queries
to the PostgreSQL backend server and to receive the results of these
queries.
libpq is also the underlying engine for several other PostgreSQL
application interfaces, including those written for C++, Perl, Python,
Tcl and ECPG. So some aspects of libpq's behavior will be important to
you if you use one of those packages. In particular, Section 32.15,
Section 32.16 and Section 32.19 describe behavior that is visible to the
user of any application that uses libpq."
To me that is, yes it is important.
