I think the bug here is that DNF is being over-zealous. NetworkManager
does not require Cockpit, but Cockpit requires NetworkManager. For some
reason, DNF thinks that Cockpit is the *only* reason NetworkManager is
installed, and "helpfully" decides to remove it.
This is clean_requirements_on_remove being helpful as usual. Never should have been a default setting as I've argued before, and the first thing I disable in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf. http://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conf_ref.html#clean-requirements-on-remove-label
