Rocky Linux is "designed to be 100% bug-for-bug compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux". However, renv (via renv_ppm_platform()) does not detect it as RHEL-compatible, so renv_ppm_transform() transforms Package Manager URLs (even those using compatible RHEL9 binaries) to source package URLs.

You can currently work around this by setting the RENV_PPM_PLATFORM environment variable, but it would be better if it worked out of the box.
