Yum repo for CentOS 8

General
9

I ran into this issue as well and I came up with a better solution by updating the docker.repo file to include the module_hotfixes=1 option. This works around the modularity issue by enabling all rpms included in the repo instead of excluding them. A better explanation can be found here.

The dnf.conf manpage states the following regarding the module_hotfixes option:

module_hotfixes
  boolean

  Set  this  to  True  to disable module RPM filtering and make all RPMs
  from the repository available. The default is False.  This allows user
  to create a repository with cherry-picked hotfixes that are included
  in a package set on  a modular system.
