Thanks, Ilia. I did run dnf clean all and dnf update prior to the install script the first time. I am going to try GPL install again on a fresh OL9 VM with --unstable --minimal.
After that, will try to manually fetch the keys and manually install the repos and run the script again, if you think that is worthwhile.
And I can also try the manual install to see if I can get Virtualmin running with the needed features and packages (do not need mail services, so minimal LAMP+PHP-FPM 8.1 should work). The database server will be remote.
It looks like our implementation of OL9 won’t accept external repo keys.
We’ll set up local mirrors for Remi and Virtualmin and try again. Or just continue with RHEL9 if that does not work. We have RHEL available but it’s pay-to-play so IT is trying to consolidate to OL because some of our infrastructure requires it.
That is not an acceptable Linux implementation, if you can’t safely install third-party software (and adding keys is the only way to check signatures when installing software).
