00466: Downstream only: Skip tests not working with older expat version

befeleme · hroncok · commit 0ded7b80c4dd · 2026-03-10T19:07:01.000+01:00
We want to run these tests in Fedora and EPEL 10, but not in EPEL 9,
which has too old version of expat. We set the upper bound version
in the conditionalized skip to a release available in CentOS Stream 10,
which is tested as working.
