Rocky Linux claims to be 100% compatible with Red Hat's OS family [1], so I don't see any reason why you couldn't use RPMs from RDO:

I wonder if there would be some compatibility problems with using RDO on a RHEL compatible OS. If RDO is built against CentOS Stream [1], could it potentially have some dependencies on python packages which are due to be released in the next RHEL minor update (since Stream is on the latest version) ?
Yes, that may happen and it's happening. i.e. we've had that situation
with python-rtslib has been updated in CentOS Stream 8 to the minimal version required by cinder [1] but not yet in CentOS Linux 8. That means that, current cinder in master is installable in CentOS Stream 8 but will need to wait for CentOS Linux 8.4. Similar will happen with CentOS Stream vs Rocky Linux. RDO Victoria, Ussuri and Train currently support both CentOS Linux 8 and CentOS Stream 8, so those should run fine on Rocky Linux. [1] https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/master/requirements.txt#L49 Generally RDO isn't specifying a version when building packages so it's
likely to be compatible. CentOS Stream will just have things that'll show up in the next version of Rocky Linux. For stable releases it's likely to just be compatible, whereas master might run into issues if new base os dependencies get added.
