Question 250
Original unofficial RHEL 10 RHCSA skill-check scenario: A system administrator uses an unapproved third-party repository to satisfy an application dependency quickly. Which observation best confirms the intended outcome?
Explanation
Correct Answer
In this RHEL 10 system administration case: A system administrator uses an unapproved third-party repository to satisfy an application dependency quickly. Underlying reason: Repository origin affects supportability, compatibility, and trust. The most direct, approved resolution is: Disable the unauthorized source and obtain the required compatible package from approved repositories. Confirm it by checking: DNF's transaction lists only approved package origins and installs cleanly. Sustain the fix by: Review package provenance before software changes. This is the INTENDED response for the strongest objective verification result. It is a knowledge-check explanation, not a verified hands-on Red Hat exam answer;
Incorrect Answers
`rpm -q` reports the selected package release after the transaction. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because repository origin affects supportability, compatibility, and trust.
The package name and release are displayed by the installed package manager. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because repository origin affects supportability, compatibility, and trust.
DNF lists the local repository and can resolve expected packages without internet. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because repository origin affects supportability, compatibility, and trust.
