My partition had plenty of space.  I think it fell into some kind of
dependency resolution loop because of not realising that the older
versions of dnf and systemd need not be protected.

I managed to fix everything by removing all the old versions of the
regular packages using distro-sync --allowerasing, and then removing the
protected versions with simple dnf erase.  During the upgrade the kernel
packages failed half way through, so I had to reinstall those using with
dnf reinstall, and only kernel-core with rpm -i --force.  Everything
thing seems in place now.

Fresh install was not an option for me, I have too many things setup.
Maybe I should write a kickstart file one of these days, just in case I
need it ;).

Not sure how I can file a bug report though, I really needed the laptop,
couldn't wait to go through the whole systematic debugging process.

Cheers,
