Hi,

At first glance these seem to all be from third party repositories. For example, CentOS/RHEL does not ship Docker at all.

Are you sure you haven’t installed these from a third party repository?

RHEL 8 (and hence AlmaLinux) has podman, which includes podman-docker wrapper to handle docker-syntax. Is that sufficient alternative for docker-ce?

The collectd can be found from CentOS SIG OpsTools. There are other small CentOS SIG repos too. I have not followed what is the future of SIGs.

Hi Jack,

From the above list I filtered it on basis of centos availability:

Centos 8
apache-commons-daemon
apache-commons-logging
collectd
ecj
libtommath
perl-Net-Daemon
containerd-io
docker-ce
docker-ce-cli
geronimo-jms
postgresql12
tomcat9
javapackages-tools
bcel

Centos 7
apache-commons-dbcp
apache-commons-pool
python-twisted
geronimo-jta

These remaining are from 3rd party:
perl-Net-TacacsPlus
ifplugd
libcares2
perl-POE-Component-Server-TacacsPlus

On searching in pkg.org, some rpm do show the almalinux links but its a broken link.
