Any clues?
Because the CentOS 8.4 package is freetype-2.9.1-4, according to the local mirrors. Did you perhaps install that from a CentOS 8 Stream repo?
Here my context: I am comparing two nodes based on CS8 (Centos 8 Stream ). One have
freetype-2.9.1-5.el8.x86_64 and the other have freetype-2.9.1-4.el8_3.1.x86_64
The mirror http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/ shows freetype-2.9.1-4.el8_3.1.x86_64 has the latest.
I wonder where this version 2.9.1-5 is coming from? The node was regularly installed with C8 and then swapped to CS8 ...

I see it here
https://koji.mbox.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=408
but not on the mirrors ...
A retired package?
