Error: 
 Problem 1: cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides samba-client-libs >= 4.21.3-104.el10_0 needed by ipa-server-4.12.2-15.el10_0.1.x86_64 from rhel-10-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms
 Problem 2: package ipa-server-dns-4.12.2-15.el10_0.1.noarch from rhel-10-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms requires ipa-server = 4.12.2-15.el10_0.1, but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides samba-client-libs >= 4.21.3-104.el10_0 needed by ipa-server-4.12.2-15.el10_0.1.x86_64 from rhel-10-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Resolution

Note. ipa-server was shipped in an async advisory as soon as the embargo lifted (June 17) but samba is planned for batch update 1 (GA June 24). It will be fixed soon.

Root Cause

  • Missing samba latest library
nothing provides samba-client-libs >= 4.21.3-104.el10_0 needed by ipa-server-4.12.2-15.el10_0.1.x86_64
