Pretty sure. No disk or internet activity, now for 25 minutes. And prior to this yumBackend.py had downloaded all the packages already. yum or dnf by themselves would have executed this whole thing in less than 10 minutes.

Right after clicking Install Updates a status bar appears that says Running, then Resolving Dependencies, then vanishes. There's no status bar after that, while it consumes CPU like mad.

# pkmon
Transaction:
  [none]
daemon connected=1
network status=wired
