At that time, or in the event of a serious security bug in this time window (Defined as anything with a VCSS v3 score of 9 or greater), this content will be removed from our mirrors, and moved to vault.centos.org where it will be archived permanently, since we will not be able to provide updates to the content after the EOL date.

solution for gpg key issue

# -- This downloads the Stream repo files.
$ sudo dnf install centos-release-stream -y --disablerepo=* --enablerepo='extras'

# -- Enabling Stream-* allows you to download the latest gpg key
$ sudo dnf swap centos-{linux,stream}-repos -y --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=extras,Stream-*

# -- Only necessary if you're using epel repos
$ sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools

$ sudo dnf distro-sync -y
$ sudo reboot

# -- Not all packages are upgradeable during the distro-sync. I had 28 packages on one server, including gcc-c++, gcc-fortran, and mysql-server
$ sudo dnf upgrade -y

# -- Optional. There's no need to keep these files, but if you don't mind your directory being messy, you can leave them.
$ sudo rm -f /etc/yum.repos.d/*rpmsave

# -- Optional. The *.repo.rpmnew files have $releasever in the Name directive, so this is just to keep the display names consistent across repos and servers (if you build new Stream systems, they'll have $releasever in the display name); the actual repo names are the same in both files.
$ ls *rpmnew | awk -F '.' '{ print $1 }' | while read -r REPO ; do /usr/bin/cp  $REPO.repo.rpmnew $REPO.repo ; done
