This is something we didn’t anticipate. The problem appears to be that RPMs built using EL9 rpmbuild aren’t installable on EL7 because rpm is too old.

We’ve been intending to deprecate the consumer RPM and replace it with global registration. Short term that’s the quickest way to move forward.

Then we should consider a solution. Given it’s already deprecated, I’m leaning to adding a warning to the documentation and moving ahead with the deprecation faster.

Notes for myself (as I want to work on a fix): This comes via Changes/Switch RPMs to zstd compression - Fedora Project Wiki that is present in RHEL9+ – we might be able to disable zstd by redefining the %_binary_payload
