One more: rpm -qf /usr/local/bin/filezilla

I bet that is not from a package.

(base) [craig@localhost ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/local/bin/filezilla
file /usr/local/bin/filezilla is not owned by any package

You have two versions of filezilla in your system:
* RPM from EPEL that is ok
* Unsuitable for el9 in /usr/local, from unknown origin

I think I know the culprit, a few months ago I did an in-place upgrade to CentOS Stream 9 following these instructions: https://ahelpme.com/linux/centos-stream ... -stream-8/
probably messed it up, though other than that the system has run fine.

There is no supported migration path from one major version to another. It's always a reinstall from scratch.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

The el9 filezilla package requires libnettle.so.8()(64bit) and libnettle.so.8(NETTLE_8)(64bit) and those should be already installed since they are supplied by the 'nettle' package which will always be installed as it's required by dnf (in order for dnf to work).
