DNS is verified working, however dig reported that it took 4703ms to
resolve, which is a little excessive and maybe the cause of the problem.

I wonder if I'm trying to resolve fedoraproject.org via the IPv6 address
for ns02.fedoraproject.org at 2610:28:1000:1401:216:3eff:fe1f:6b93 and
waiting for that to timeout.  For example dig to www.google.com resolves
in 87 ms.

I guess I should shut off IPv6 since I'm not using it on this host (yet)
