Probably in connection with some version of yumex, I have somehow

This has not been a problem till now. fc26 (and, unless I'm
misremembering, fc25 and fc24 before that) has just ignored the
superfluous ones. But now system-upgrade is choking on the ones for fc27.
The machine is actually .x86_64, as I have now discovered. I
tried adding --allowerasing and --allowerasing --best, but with no
success.
Do I dare do something like "dnf remove compiz"?? (Or perhaps
"dnf remove */compiz/*/.i686 ???)
I had a failed partial upgrade and ended up with a ton of duplicate packages (not quite the same issue, but tangential)
I ended up trying to get a list of the packages I wanted to remove into a text file and then something like:
$ cat <file> | xargs rpm -e --nodeps
Thanks,
Richard
