Description
Looking at
https://download.docker.com/linux/rhel/9/source/stable/Packages/
Last source RPM for docker-buildx-plugin is at 0.27.0
docker-buildx-plugin-0.27.0-1.el9.src.rpm 2025-09-03 21:31:56 13MB
but if we peek the binary side of the directories, there are newer versions like:
docker-buildx-plugin-0.30.1-1.el9.x86_64.rpm 2025-11-28 16:08:34 17MB
This seems to be common for other packages as well,
source packages after early Sept. 2025, does not seem to be there.
Are there an alternative repository, we should be looking at when obtaining source RPMs?

Research direction
Start by comparing the RHEL 9 stable source directory at https://download.docker.com/linux/rhel/9/source/stable/Packages/ with the corresponding binary package directories, using docker-buildx-plugin versions 0.27.0 and 0.30.1 as examples. Determine whether newer source RPMs are published elsewhere or missing from the repository; done means documenting the correct source location or confirming the packaging gap.
