This release contains the following changes:

Support DEB and RPM testing related configuration at the per-test level config as well as at the top level workflow inputs, which enables it to vary per test scenario.
Upgrade cargo-generate-rpm from v0.10.2 to v0.16.1 to gain support for the %posttrans scriptlet. This scriptlet is needed when installing a package that obsoletes an existing installed package in order to be able to perform actions after the uninstallation of the obsoleted package has completed. This is because the %postinst scriptlet runs before uninstallation of the obsoleted package and so is unable to act late enough.
Add a rpm_yum_extra_args configuration key for use during package testing to do pass additional arguments to yum install which is needed to install a to-be-obsoleted package from a preconfigured-but-disabled-by-default repo (which is the case with ldns-utils in Rocky Linux (in RL 8 it is in the powertools repo and in RL 9 it is in the crb repo).
Internal: Fix a typo: CONFIFILE_LIST_FILE -> CONFFILE_LIST_FILE.
