Subject: [ovirt-users] Ovirt 4.5 standalone engine does not install on Centos 9 stream
Good afternoon all,

The instructions at https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/installing_ovirt_as_a_standalone_manager_with_local_databases/#Enabling_the_Red_Hat_Virtualization_Manager_Repositories_install_RHVM say:

Ensure all packages are up to date:

# dnf upgrade --nobest
Reboot the machine if any kernel-related packages were updated.

Install the ovirt-engine package and dependencies.

# dnf install ovirt-engine
Run the engine-setup command to begin configuring the oVirt Engine:

# engine-setup

I did figure out that the modules that were in centos 8 are now straight out installs except for the pkideps. haven't got that one figured out yet.

At this step, engine-setup is nowhere to be found on the system, and there appears to be no ovirt-engine RPM available.

Terminal dump of the offending session:
