Latest update (May 11)

EPEL9 on CentOS Stream 9 (epel9-next)
The complete KDE Plasma Desktop update is now in stable and on the mirrors.
There are two bugs found and the fixes are in testing.
- selinux and plasma-workspace.
-- This only affects a new install of KDE Plasma Desktop, it doesn't affect
updates.  You will know when you hit this.  Lot's of pop-up screens telling
you of this bug.
-- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-NEXT-2022-9984d71297
--- Give it some karma so we don't have to wait a week.
- kf5-kapidox does not install
-- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-NEXT-2022-88f6f718b8

Note: again, a reminder, RHEL 9.0 will have the slightly older KDE Plasma
Desktop.  This *updated* KDE Plasma Desktop will not be available for RHEL
9.0 GA, it will be available for RHEL 9.1.

EPEL8 on CentOS Stream 8 (epel8-next)
We have rebuilt as many packages as we can.  We still cannot build
qt5-qtwebengine, and thus any packages that depend on it.
- qt5-qtwebengine
-- The python27 module has been fixed, and you can now build packages that
require python2 on epel8-next.
-- qt5-qtwebengine builds fine on x86_64, but failed on aarch64
--- Any help would be appreciated.
--- https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6819/86886819/build.log
--- We tried rebuilding the older qt5-qtwebengine, same errors.
--- We tried the older gcc, again, same errors.
--- Still working on it, but if you recognize the errors in the buildlog,
let us (me) know.
- sddm and kscreenlocker not working.
-- We have found that it is indeed a RHEL 8 kernel issue.
-- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2043771
-- kernel issues take a while to make it through RHEL.  So if anyone finds
any type of workarounds.  Let us know.
--- sddm workaround
---- dnf install gdm ; systemctl enable gdm -f
--- kscreenlocker workaround - unknown

Again, thank you for your patience and words of encouragement.
Troy
