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.

Problem solved.
