Disk Requirements:

Obliviously / is near full.

What I've done on several computers with not enough space in / is to symlink /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade to something like /home/system-upgrade. Then dnf will store all the rpm files there instead of on the / filesystem and the upgrade process will still work the same.
