Depsolve Error occured: 
 Problem: package python3-pulpcore-3.7.3-1.el8.noarch requires python3-rq < 1.6, but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install both python3-rq-1.7.0-1.el8.noarch and python3-rq-1.3.0-1.el8.noarch
  - cannot install both python3-rq-1.5.2-1.el8.noarch and python3-rq-1.7.0-1.el8.noarch
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package python3-rq-1.3.0-1.el8.noarch
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package python3-pulpcore-3.3.1-1.el8.noarch
changed: [centos-7]

This appears to be caused by the following situation for centos8:

The Foreman Pulp repo's old version of python3-rq, which is installed, is 1.3
The Foreman Pulp repo's python3-rq is at 1.5
EPEL's python3-rq is 1.7 (a recent update, that triggered this breakage)
The Foreman Pulp repo's python3-pulpcore-3.7.3-1.el8.noarch requires python3-rq < 1.6
Our pulp_installer logic only tries to update the packages from the repo, but it tries to install the very latest version of the package, which happens to from EPEL and is newer than 1.6
