I noticed that on a RHEL8 workstation the deprecated and removed package from EL8.0 - libssh2, does not get substituted by the package from epel: libssh2-1.8.0-8.module+el8.0.0+4084+cceb9f44.1.x86_64 vs libssh2-1.9.0-5.el8.x86_64 only possible with yum update libssh2 --disablerepo=rhel-8-for-x86_64-appst* is this intentional? yum distrosync tries to install the obsolete version 1.8.0 again. How to solve this conflict? Its seems not to be a "module" problem otherwise it would not install the epel version at all, right?

Have you tried adding `module_hotfixes=true` [1] to the EPEL repo configuration file (/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo IIRC)? [1]: https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modularity.html#hotfix-repositories
