We have a ovirt-host-4.5.0-3.el9.x86_64 cluster.

I just recently ran yum update and it upgraded python-nmstate from python3-libnmstate-2.0.0-2.el9.noarch to python3-libnmstate-2.2.27-2.el9_4.x86_64.

This broken ovirt's ability to update the network config:

that VERSION file, along with many other files, are not in 2.2.27 version of python-nmstate rpm.

My fix was to downgrade the rpm.

dnf install python3-libnmstate-2.0.0-2.el9.noarch

I'm sure that's not the best solution as I can no longer run dnf update.

Ideas?
