Description

This is specific to 9.0 agents, I reproduce on a AlmaLinux 9.5 at least (didn't test any other RHEL distro like), does not work on any rhel distribution as well

root@cs90_rhel9:~# dnf install rudder-agent

Error: 
 Problem: cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides cron needed by rudder-agent-1398866025:9.0.0.beta2.git202509170019-1.EL.9.x86_64 from Rudder_9.0
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
