OK, for whatever unknown reason, /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo had
the 'enabled' flag set to 0. Setting it to 1 allowed dnf to update
Chrome to version 118.0.5993.70--and the pink button is gone.
I see the same thing on another similarly behaving system, with the mod
date on the file as July 26. There is an 'rpmnew' version of that file
(dated 2/3/2022) with the same flag set to 0, but with another line that
says "skip_if_unavailable=True" This line is not present in the
currently used file.
Also, don't forget that you have to restart chrome after updating or you'll continue to see the notification.
