Can you send results with `dnf install -b yourpackages ` please ?
to have some clues .
It's a bash file that runs dnf. The files are listed inside. All you
have to do is edit the command line to change -y --skip-broken to
-y -b, and you can run it using bash and see the results on your system
if you have rawhide installed. That puts you in control of the output.
I've also attached the file.
