Summary0000488: nginx package has moved to epoch 2, and supersedes the nginx stable repository
DescriptionFollowing updating to Almalinux 9.5, the nginx package has the following version: 2:1.20.1-20.el9.alma.1
This supersedes the package available from the Nginx repository, and installing any nginx package from the nginx-stable repository is automatically downgraded to the appstream repository at the next update
Steps To Reproduceenable the nginx-stable repo (baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/)
install nginx from the nginx-stable repo (1:1.26.2-1.el9.ngx is latest)
run "yum update" -- this attempts to downgrade the nginx version to the appstream version.
Additional InformationI may be missing something, but I do not understand why the epoch has changed in this package.

As a workaround, I have disabled the nginx packages within the appstream repo.
In /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-appstream.repo

within the [appstream] section I added the line:
exclude=nginx*
