I had to add --allowerasing to my dnf update command to get it to go
through (which it did, cleanly removing the old ansible package and
replacing it with ansible-core). I suspect that the new ansible-core
package doesn't properly obsolete the older ansible package. Trying to
Upgrade hosts from the Admin portal would fail because of this requirement.

As a side note, my systems hadn't been updated since before the mirrors for
Centos 8 packages went away, so all updates failed due to failure
downloading mirrorlists. I had to do this first, to get the updated repo
files pointing to Centos 8 Stream packages:

dnf update --disablerepo ovirt-4.4-* ovirt-realease44
