Odd update issues on Rocky 8.8 - not finding updated packages

Rocky Linux General
1

I have a server running Foreman/Katello (unimportant, really) and it doesn’t seem to be getting updated properly.
Tested a couple packages:
apache-commons-lang3 3.7-3 is installed, version 3.12.0-7 is very clearly in the repository https://rockylinux.pkgs.org/8/rockylinux-appstream-x86_64/apache-commons-lang3-3.12.0-7.module+el8.8.0+1268+1d902768.noarch.rpm.html
but no updates are recieved for the package:

Manually downloading the rpm and localinstalling works fine to upgrade this particular package, but i’m left wondering what other packages arent updating either and, more importantly, why?!

I suggest familiarizing yourself with the following topics: APPLICATION STREAMS and DNF MODULES.

Your package belongs to a specific “stream” (think of it as a composition of packages) and the other package to a different “stream” checkout the output of

# dnf module list maven

Thanks!
Sometimes i forget Modules are a thing now and forgot about them this time around. Just a massive brainfart on my part.
