Summary0009044: Kernels in the Rocky Linux 9.4 vault contain innaccurate metadata
Description3 kernels listed in the Rocky Linux 9.4 vault have incorrect metadata for aarch64

kernel-5.14.0-427.16.1.el9_4.aarch64.rpm
kernel-5.14.0-427.18.1.el9_4.aarch64.rpm
kernel-5.14.0-427.20.1.el9_4.aarch64.rpm

Their arch in the metatadata are listed as src and the should be aarch64

Thank you for the report.

This is a bug in peridot where the accidental import of a source package into peridot overwrites the aarch64 package of the same exact name. While it does appear to be "aarch64" in the file name, the metadata is correct that it is a source package and not a binary package. Unpacking it with rpm2cpio | cpio -idmv will show that it is indeed a source package.

% rpm2cpio kernel-5.14.0-427.16.1.el9_4.aarch64.rpm | cpio -idmv
