Spike,

How did you configure the AppStream8.latest RHN channel?

I searched all my repos and I only have the AppStream8. Googling 
"AppStream8.latest" didn't find anything but your post in an archive.

I worked around this temporarily by installing the CentOS 7 version but used 
the el8 versions of it's dependencies.

yum -y install compat-openssl10-1:1.0.2o-3.el8.x86_64
yum -y install 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/libssh2-1.8.0-3.el7.x86_64.rpm

DSU then launched fine.

 
Thank you,
Steffan Cline

    This Bugzilla reports claims:
    
        libssh2 is removed from RHEL-8, see  bug #1513312 for details.  The 
package has actually never been supported in RHEL-8 beyond the virt module.
    
    That is not quite true.  It is available in RHEL8.1, in the 
AppStream8.latest RHN channel.
    
    $ yum list libssh2

    It is true however, that it's not in the base RHEL8 or AppStream8  yum 
repos that come with base RHEL 8.1.
    
    It is pretty trivial to install it on RHEL 8.0 and 8.1.  
       1. Define the yum repo definition file for AppStream8.latest.  
       2. yum install libssh2.
    
    So if the (RHEL8 version of) dell-system-update RPM requires it, it should 
list it as an RPM dependency.

    To add to Chris, there is more information here (someone from Dell opened 
the bug): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1767908
    
    According to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1767908#c15 (from 
another Dell person), "Dell tools has made plans to move to libssh from 
libssh2."
    
    Thanks.
