I have upgraded 4 systems (two laptops and two desktops, all

F23 to F24. Two of them are working fine, and the others seem to be badly messed up in
the area of package management. The main symptom I see is that google-chrome-stable was
uninstalled during the upgrade, and I can't reinstall it:
One thing you can try would be to move /var/cache/dnf/packages.db out of the way and then
run "dnf list installed" which will rebuild the db.
I just "tested" this on a VM and the rebuild occurs and everything is normal.
[root@cobweb yum.repos.d]# dnf install google-chrome-stable --allowerasing

I also get "no matching packages" responses to "dnf list" on packages
that are already
installed:

Here, dnf fails to even list packages that "rpm -q" shows are already on the
system that
should match the pattern.
Anybody seen this or have a clue what I can do other than a full reinstall?
Thanks,
