I don't use Gnome -- I run KDE. And I already erased PackageKit. I never let that run on my systems.

I looked at the dnf logs and spotted this. Upgrading webkit2gtk3 caused flatpak to be installed (along with xdg-desktop-portal-kde): Installing weak dependencies: flatpak x86_64 1.6.4-1.fc32 updates 1.5 M p11-kit-server x86_64 0.23.20-1.fc32 fedora 189 k xdg-desktop-portal-kde x86_64 5.18.5-2.fc32 updates 191 k I added excludepkgs to my dnf.conf file.
