Please provide more details. How do you upgrade?
Do you follow some document/procedure? Which? At which point are you in?

Please check/share the setup log.
Generally speaking, otopi does not try to init yum, unless dnf failed to
init.
I guess going forward we should completely remove yum support. It was left
over from the time where we supported both. This would not have solved your
current problem, only output a different error message.
Thanks and best regards,

I am trying this on a AlmaLinux 8 host; I see that otopi actually has
hardcoded strings like "fedora" " centos" etc.
I have set OTOPI_DNF_ENABLE=1 and so far have made it to the "Please
confirm installation settings" phase.
My bad - sorry for the noise.
Just curious: will this affect installing hosts and general oVirt 4.4
operations like upgrades?
So far so good... I will reach back if it hits other issues.
