dnf update has been failing for me since yesterday (Jan 23), complaining about openssl packages:

Error:
Problem 1: cannot install both openssl-libs-1:3.0.7-25.el9_3.x86_64 from baseos and openssl-libs-1:3.0.7-24.el9.x86_64 from @System
- package openssl-devel-1:3.0.7-24.el9.x86_64 from @System requires openssl-libs(x86-64) = 1:3.0.7-24.el9, but none of the providers can be installed

- cannot install the best update candidate for package openssl-devel-1:3.0.7-24.el9.x86_64
Problem 2: package kernel-devel-5.14.0-362.13.1.el9_3.x86_64 from @System requires openssl-devel, but none of the providers can be installed

(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
I believe the problem is due to out-of-date or mismatched mirror repos. openssl-devel lives in AppStream, while openssl & openssl-libs live in BaseOS. According to /var/log/dnf.librepo.log, i’m getting AppStream from mirror.reenigne.net and BaseOS from rocky-linux-northamerica-northeast1.production.gcp.mirrors.ctrliq.cloud. However, while openssl & openssl-libs have been updated to version 3.0.7-25, openssl-devel hasn’t, at least in the reenigne.net mirror.
