Errors do happen in development branches.

CentOS 8 Stream process is backwards and does not allow to properly
inherit build sequence for rebases that require side-tag use.

I have wrote a warning on FreeIPA mailing list yesterday:
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/freeipa-users@lists.fedorahosted.org/thread/KXDC65B3LUAHQIL3YVH5UWJYH7O3TP7T/

None of the developers involved in those packages' maintenance have any
influence at how CentOS 8 Stream packages built and composed. We can
suggest certain things but ultimately it is outside of our control. It
is better with CentOS 9 Stream process but even that does not help when
public holidays are involved, like Thanksgiving in US right now -- we
simply have no reach to people who could do anything to composes.

Please refrain from an upgrade until next week.
