We noticed that all newly uploaded packages under the RHEL 8 repos like rhel-8.8/rhel-8.9/rhel-8.10 etc. contain 8.10 in the package name, regardless of the actual minor version of that repo.
Could you confirm if this is intentional or if the package should reflect specific RHEL 8 minor version in their names?
Example:
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/15/redhat/rhel-8.9-x86_64/ contains rpm named as [postgresql15-15.17-1PGDG.rhel8.10.x86_64.rpm]

Hi Anbazhagan,
This behavior is expected.
The PGDG RPMs for RHEL 8 are typically built against the most recent minor
release available (currently 8.10). Because Red Hat Enterprise Linux
maintains ABI compatibility across RHEL 8 minor versions, packages built on
8.10 remain compatible with earlier minor releases such as 8.9, 8.8, etc.
For that reason, the package naming may include the ".rhel8.10" suffix even
when the RPM is located in repositories corresponding to earlier minor
versions like "rhel-8.9-x86_64".
In short, the suffix reflects the build environment rather than a strict
requirement for that exact minor release.
Best regards
Yekma666

If this is an AI response, it is not funny and it is incorrect. If this
is not AI response, it is incorrect.
Per:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel8-abi-compatibility
https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel9-abi-compatibility
https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel10-abi-compatibility
"During the life cycle of a major release, Red Hat makes commercially
reasonable efforts to maintain the binary compatibility of the runtime
environment across all minor releases and errata advisories. If
necessary, Red Hat may make exceptions to this compatibility goal for
critical impact security or other significant issues."
