I ran into this the other day. It would seem the way dnf handles
caching is different from yum. Not 100% sure/convinced this "fixed"
my problem....but after running "dnf clean expire-cache" it then
reported the same thing as yum.
Yes, [root@box10 bobg]# dnf clean expire-cache
Yields the same update list this morning, only two items in this case.
But it seems to eat up any time saved by running dnf instead of yum.

All that command is doing is making the next dnf process refetch all its
repository metadata which commands "dnf clean dbcache" and "dnf clean
metadata" and "dnf clean all" will do, as well as sometimes "dnf
check-update" re-downloads all the repository metadata.
It has also been suggested that just changing the dnf config to make the
time between downloads the same as what yum uses would rectify the
issue, but that would mean that dnf would have to have a service
continually running to refresh the cache like yum does. Does dnf have
such a service?
