Since I started building packages separately on each supported RHEL
minor version, there has been a repository RPM for each minor version
(9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 10.0, ...) in addition to the one for the major version
(9, 10). All of them share the same package name, and the minor version
specific ones are also published in the repository of the latest minor
version. As a result, dnf update replaced the major version repository
RPM with the one of the latest minor version at that time, which then
stayed on that minor version forever, even after the OS moved to a newer
one.

I just fixed that issue. Please update the repo RPMs at your earliest
convenience. Read the details here:

I'd like to thank Daryl Herzmann for the report, analysis and testing.
