Attempt to test deployment via RPMs on RHEL 8.x fails: repodata/repomd.xml is missing

Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'XSEDE-Development':
  - Status code: 404 for http://software.xsede.org/development/repo/redhat/8/x86_64/repodata/repo... (IP: 3.17.194.2)
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'XSEDE-Development': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried

Apologies.  A permissions error (the wrong group write permission) caused the repo metadata update script to fail.  This has been fixed.

There remains a complaint from dnf - "failovermethod" may no longer be a thing in dnf for RHEL 8.x...
