The oVirt project is excited to announce the general availability of oVirt 4.4.2 , as of September 17th, 2020.
[snip]
oVirt Node 4.4 based on CentOS Linux 8.2 (available for x86_64 only) will be released separately due to a blocker issue (Bug 1837864).

hi,
will you post an update to the list when the iso is available?
Sure, we'll issue a release announcement for the oVirt Node update as soon as we get the bug fixed.
OK, thanks.
But indeed there is something strange.
Suppose I have an 4.4.0 node (when CentOS 8.2 not already released and there was the pre-release), can I update to 4.4.2?
If I execute "yum update" on this system I get:
[root@ovirt01 ~]# yum update

Is this ok [y/N]:
And another guy I'm in contact with, who already has 4.4.1 installed, get no updates available....
Does this mean that even if 4.4.2 has been released (at which level at this point????), an ovirt node cannot be upgraded?
And a plain CentOS host instead, could it be updated?
