It is relatively simple to temporarily edit the .conf files in /etc/yum.repos.d for whatever custom repository you have that have a short expiration period, and set them to a month, or something. Then, delete everything that was downloaded the first time, and do a 'dnf system-upgrade download' again.

This should put a sufficiently long metadata expiration on the downloaded packages so that dnf doesn't try to refresh them during a 'dnf system-upgrade reboot'. After the upgrade restore the original expiration settings, and do a 'dnf clean all'.

It's a machine I don't use very often so no hurry and at this point it's more on principal :) I admittedly only skimmed both the bugzilla and the github issue but I didn't see any response from the dnf team. This seems serious enough to warrant attention.  

Thanks,
