Summary0000433: Issues with Scientific Linux 7 to alma8 migration
DescriptionI'm testing SL7 -> alma8 migration (with the goal of then migrating to alma9).

There are a number of issues:

Pre-upgrade:

The sl-logos package conflicts with almalinux-logos; I had to rpm -e to continue.

Post-upgrade:

almalinux-release is not installed. (I hacked around it by removing sl-release, manually setting /etc/os-release and /etc/redhat-release to look like Centos 8, running almalinux-deploy.sh, and mv'ing /etc/os-release.rpmnew to /etc/os-release).

A number of EL7 packages are still present, some of which will interfere with migration to alma9:
btrfs-progs-4.9.1-1.el7.x86_64
elevate-release-1.0-2.el7.noarch
kernel-3.10.0-1160.102.1.el7.x86_64
leapp-0.14.0-1.el7.noarch
leapp-data-almalinux-0.1-6.el7.noarch
leapp-upgrade-el7toel8-0.16.0-6.el7.elevate.17.noarch
python2-leapp-0.14.0-1.el7.noarch
sl7-upgrade-0.1.1-2.el7.noarch
yum-conf-extras-1.0-1.el7.noarch
yum-conf-repos-1.0-1.el7.noarch
yum-plugin-upgrade-helper-1.1.31-54.el7_8.noarch
sl-indexhtml
yum-conf-sl7x
sl-release-notes

sl-indexhtml would not uninstall cleanly, but can be removed with --nodeps and replaced with the almalinux-indexhtml package.

The /etc/yum.conf file still has:
exclude=python2-leapp,snactor,leapp-upgrade-el7toel8,leapp
