    We have recently restructured cyrus-sasl sub rpms in line with other distros. 
    Can you try "dnf update cyrus-sasl" installed of doing "dnf install cyrus-sasl-lib" ?

    could do this, but in my case cyrus-sasl-lib is required and pulled in  by curl update, which is done in a orchestrated manner, so ne manual intervention possible.

    If the whole "dnf update" is not preferred , then the only way I see to handle this is to also add "cyrus-sasl" along with curl., "dnf update curl cyrus-sasl"
