NOTE:  --skip-broken still returns the same error message, and --nobest just skips the gdal36-libs update

Armadillo 12 packages *are* in the EPEL repo:

https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/9/Everything/x86_64/Packages/a/

If you have a local mirror, make sure that it is enabled. Also make sure
that armadillo is not in the excludes list in either dnf.conf or in the
repo config files.

I appreciate the reply.
We have an internal Satellite that we pull from the EPEL repo.
The Satellite Repos are refreshed daily by the IT department.
It seems then that the EPEL repo has not been refreshed.
I will check with my IT department.
Thanks again for your help.
