Hi Team,

I have rocky 8.7 and wanted to install security patch on it through below command.

sudo yum update --security --downloadonly --downloaddir=/root/security

But only 4 packages are there in that and earlier kernel packages also used to be there in security itself, but this time it is found in bug-fixes.  
So can any one have a idea why this is changed to bug-fixes.

We used to download security patches and apply to server and if kernel upgrade is there we used to do that as wll.
