If the python3-syspurpose package is installed on the system prior to the conversion, it has a different NEVRA than subscription-manager requires. The subscription-manager is strict about it - the syspurpose NEVRA needs to match exactly the sub-man NEVRA. And because we're downloading the sub-man packages from UBI, the NEVRA doesn't match. Previously we thought this issue affects just CentOS Linux 8 but it does affect Alma and Rocky 8 as well.

If the python3-syspurpose package is installed on the system prior to the conversion, it has a different NEVRA than subscription-manager requires. The subscription-manager is strict about it - the syspurpose VRA (version, release, arch) needs to match exactly the sub-man VRA. And because we're downloading the sub-man packages from UBI, the VRA doesn't match.
