Currently only version 2.1.11 is available in the EL8 repository.

sudo dnf install https://zfsonlinux.org/epel/zfs-release-2-3$(rpm --eval "%{dist}").noarch.rpm

What is the checksum of your rpm package?

Same as yours:

$ md5sum zfs-release-2-3.el8.noarch.rpm
191547340e36aec2c0072c29f12cf1e4  zfs-release-2-3.el8.noarch.rpm

Same result using an AlmaLinux 8.7 Docker image

That's probably the issue - AlmaLinux is at version 8.8 now. It looks like my yum metadata wasn't refreshed in my earlier example. Here's what I'm seeing now:

⬆️ these are the correct RPMs you should be seeing for Alma 8.7 and 8.8.

Was the structure of the ZFS EL8 repository changed recently?
How can we get this working again without specifying the "--releasever" parameter?
I can't remember that I have to use this parameter in the past.
Specifying the parameter should be only a temporary workaround but not a permanent solution. 😃

The repo behavior was changed in 6a7dda9.

Your best bet is to udate your docker image to Alma 8.8. If that's not possible, you can edit /etc/yum.repos.d/zfs.repo and change all the $releasever to a hardocded 8.7 to match your docker image

- baseurl=http://download.zfsonlinux.org/epel/$releasever/$basearch/
+ baseurl=http://download.zfsonlinux.org/epel/8.7/$basearch/

Note that if you do that, you're not going to get any of the newer releases, since Alma 8.7 only supports up to zfs-2.1.11.

In general and after reading openzfs/zfs#10328 I agree, using $releasever inside the repository file is the right way forward.

As you mentioned, Requires: <specific_kernel_version> (what would be the right approach) is not used, therefore in some cases (like mine) the version needs to be hardcoded.

It seems there is no easy way out, thank you for your feedback

Sorry, I have to reopen this issue, maybe you are already aware of this but I am facing an issue using the "releasever" parameter. During the ZFS installation I've got the following error (more details below):
Curl error (37): Couldn't read a file:// file for file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-el-8.7 [Couldn't open file /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-el-8.7]

@stephanwehr try this workaround:

sudo ln -s /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-8 etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-el-8.7

Yes possible workarounds as you mentioned would be either a symbolik link
ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-2013 /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-el-8.7

or adjusting the ZFS repository file /etc/yum.repos.d/zfs.repo

[zfs]
name=ZFS on Linux for EL$releasever - dkms
baseurl=http://download.zfsonlinux.org/epel/8.7/$basearch/
enabled=1
metadata_expire=7d
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openzfs-el-$releasever

I just wanted to let you know about the current behavior. From my point of view we should find a solution that doesn't require workarounds.

As there is a potential for data corruption (#15526) below version 2.1.14 or 2.2.2, it is not recommended to use older packages.
