Sadly it seems the 3.0.2 and 2.7.5 packages cannot be installed due to various
different broken dependencies, so simple upgrade or downgrade of dnf from the
current state of the Fedora install is not possible.

I know this is Fedora and there is a caveat emptor, but I wonder if this
episode indicates that there should be work done to make sure that a broken
dnf can never be installed? dnf is too important to a Fedora install to allow
having a broken one be put in place. Ditto rpm, obviously.
