The subscription-manager dnf plugin is disabled by default as part of our debranding in both CentOS Linux and CentOS Stream.

I don't know what caused it to be enabled on your system, but that is the way it currently ships.

What appears is below.
Removing dependent packages is required. Removing unused dependencies is optional.
dnf remove *subscription* --noautoremove
should remove the dependent packages but keep thee unused dependencies if you want them.
There's also a setting in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf to set the default behaviour of the autoremove function.
Having said that, I don't have any of those packages in your list on my system and it's working fine. So removing them (probably) won't break anything.
Frank,
Thanks for the help. I used the -noautoremove switch and the following was removed :

After these were removed the request to register with Red Hat no longer appears with 'dnf update'
Thanks again!!!!

You could also just disable the yum subscription-manager plugin by setting enabled=0 in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/subscription-manager.conf _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
