I can't either: 

[markh@aurelian ~]$ time sudo dnf install firefox
Last metadata expiration check: 1:27:25 ago on Tue Mar 29 13:44:11 2016.
Package firefox-45.0.1-2.fc23.x86_64 is already installed, skipping.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

real    0m2.087s
user    0m1.914s
sys     0m0.125s


Maybe a 'dnf clean all' might help with that.

I can't replicate this:

  $ time sudo dnf install firefox
  Last metadata expiration check: 2:03:34 ago on Tue Mar 29 12:59:50 2016.
  Package firefox-45.0.1-2.fc23.x86_64 is already installed, skipping.
  Dependencies resolved.
  Nothing to do.
  Complete!

  real  0m1.362s
  user  0m1.197s
  sys   0m0.099s
