What would be a good course of action?

After install a new Fedora 24, now 25, I do this step.

sudo systemctl mask dnf-makecache dnf-makecache.timer packagekit packagekit-offline-update 

sudo systemctl stop dnf-makecache dnf-makecache.timer packagekit packagekit-offline-update 

rm -rf /var/cache/PackageKit/*

And all still work.

Another way to avoid that PackageKit download tons of package, which it will never use and never remove, is:

sudo dnf remove PackageKit

rm -rf /var/cache/PackageKit/*

This remove also gnome-software, then, if you want a graphical software installer you can:

sudo dnf install yumex-dnf

bye
