I propose a partial qemu exclusion (on centos-streams only), with the assumption that ovirt-required qemu will be pushed directly via the ovirt repo. In both cases, this is a temporary measure needed to avoid using the broken qemu pushed by streams. In both cases libvirt update from appstreams will get blocked - assuming it requires the broken qemu release. Do you advise we simply --exclude=qemu* everything we run dnf? I would imagine it's far more dangerous and will block libvirt update just as well.
