Also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1893223, filed last
October.  And see:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/SV26LZTNV42GXBMZVYAFRMBBGKYUI7VN/

For me, running "hostnamectl" showed that the static hostname was
"localhost" and the transient hostname was "fedora", apparently
because somebody thought the latter was a good idea.  The nonmatching
hostnames triggered NetworkManager to spam the logs, which is the
second bug.  Both should be fixed, but the fact that nobody is paying
attention to bugs filed last fall is not encouraging.

The workaround I resorted to was to use hostnamectl to make the static
and transient hostnames match.
