Thanks to Steven, Stephen and Miro for finding this solution. Still, having to add flags and deleting the existing doc package is not completely gruntling---it works, but it's not automatic and, for the future, I am curious if there's another way.

Sorry for flogging this fine stallion, but I believe that 'dnf update kicad kicad-doc' would have worked (I did check that updating kicad-doc followed by updating kicad works). Isn't there some combination of Required/Obsoletes/Conflicts/??? to coax dnf to upgrade both packages instead of deleting kicad-doc?

This should work without --allowerasing once the packages are actually in a repository. "dnf update kicad" will see the newer version of kicad-doc and it will update both at the same time.
This is after enabling Steven's COPR copr:copr.fedorainfracloud.org:group_kicad:kicad , which contains kicad, kicad-doc and kicad-packages3d. Are you saying that it would make a difference when they are in the main Fedora - Updates repo?
