[Samba] SAMBA Sernet REPO - missing repomd.xml.key

Hello Samba users,
I’m running into an issue when upgrading from SAMBA+ 4.22 to 4.23 (and 
also with a fresh 4.23 installation).
When using the SerNet SAMBA+ 4.23 repository, dnf fails because the file
repodata/repomd.xml.key is missing in the 4.23 repository.
The same file is present and accessible in the 4.22 repository, and the 
configuration works there without any problems.

With repo_gpgcheck / gpgcheck enabled, the 4.23 repo cannot be used 
as-is.
I’m aware that disabling metadata verification is a possible workaround, 
but this does not look like an intended or clean solution.

This looks like either:

a packaging / repository metadata issue on the SerNet side, or

an undocumented change in how the 4.23 repository metadata is signed.

Could someone please confirm whether this is a known issue, or if there 
was an intentional change in the repository signing for SAMBA+ 4.23?

Thanks in advance for any clarification.

Best regards
bB.
