Yeah, that was a typo.  Linux moved from linux_base-c7 (centos) to linux_base-rl9 (rocky linux).  I think rl7 never existed.

The patch will work, but that racadm presently ported won’t.  It needs a complete redo, and I want to greatly simplify the makefile so the number of files it installs are basically two binaries, plus a few symlinks to keep hardcoded dlopens happy.

But until I can test this on my poudriere machine, which runs 15, we’re in a holding pattern.  The tests I’ve done have been on 14.3 but they’ve been manual.  I suspect more work in a day or three, we’re at the mercy of the package building clusters.
