I'm still struggling to get oVirt installed. It absolutely will not install on RHEL 8, the documentation here is flat out wrong:

javapackages-tools is not a module that exists in RHEL 8. Apparently it's a CentOS PowerTools module.
It should exist in the RHEL 8 CodeReady Builder repository.
That did in fact work, thanks.
Since original CentOS no longer really exists either, does anyone have any opinions or experience with installing oVirt on any of:
- CentOS Stream 8
- Alma Linux 8.5
- Rocky Linux
Alma in particular looks like a straight replacement for old CentOS.
I've used CentOS Stream 8 reasonably okay for this, but AlmaLinux would work too.
I didn't actually try Alma, but I suspect we might have problems with ansible playbooks / random scripts which match "centos". I did build an alma-8.5 virt-builder template today though.
