Are you excluding packages in your dnf/repo configuration? Are you selectively running updates rather than just running `dnf update`? If at all possible, please provide `rpaste --sysinfo`. ---

Dear nazunalika As per my understandig below two package are missing in appstream which are causing update the issue. libstdc+±devel-8.5.0- **4**.el8.x86\_64 and gcc-8.5.0- **4**.el8.x86\_64 Their available version are gcc-8.5.0-3.el8.x86\_64 and libstdc+±devel-8.5.0-3.el8.x86\_64 ---

Hi linuxlover, Then you mean these packages missing in Rocky Linux cause this problem? If it is the case, do you mean it will be fixed automatically once these two packages are available? ---

We’ve observed that [mirrors.rockylinux.org](http://mirrors.rockylinux.org) currently serves mirrorlists for “AppStream” where each URL points to the “kickstart” tree instead of the “os” tree. For example: ```auto $ curl 'https://mirrors.rockylinux.org/mirrorlist?arch=x86_64&repo=AppStream-8' 2>/dev/null | head -n 5 # repo = rocky-AppStream-8.5 arch = x86_64 country = global http://la.mirrors.clouvider.net/rocky/8.5/AppStream/x86_64/kickstart/ http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.5/AppStream/x86_64/kickstart/ http://mirror.i3d.net/pub/rockylinux//8.5/AppStream/x86_64/kickstart/ https://mirror.yandex.ru/rockylinux/8.5/AppStream/x86_64/kickstart/ ``` The problem w.r.t. the missing `libstdc++-devel-8.5.0-4.el8_5` update package most likely stems from this. ---

[This](https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/rocky-linux-8-4-to-rocky-linux-8-5-update-issues/4565/9) should help. 🙂 ---

In majority of cases, I would never suggest `allowerasigin` or `nobest` - Our mirror manager for some reason decided it wanted to choose the kickstart directory rather than os, which is where all the updated packages live. BaseOS seems fine, but it seems the other core repositories aren’t, we’ll look into it and updates should be able to go through. ---
