conclusion you should use:

# dnf update "kd*" "kf* "q*" "per* "pyt*" "u*" "v*" "x*" "y*" "z*"


I got many errors like this or packages that are obsolete: 
Error: package z88dk-1.10.1-8.20150709cvs.fc23.x86_64 conflicts with
z80asm provided by z80asm-1.8-8.fc23.x86_64

In those cases you may exclude the package with :

# dnf update "kd*" "kf* "q*" "per* "pyt*" "u*" "v*" "x*" "y*" "z*" \
--exclude="z80asm*" --exclude=perl-gettext -exclude=qca2  etc.
