  ah, so i'm almost assuredly seeing some obsolete metadata? so let's
try:

$ sudo dnf clean metadata
langpacks: No languages are enabled
Cleaning repos: fedora updates-testing updates adobe-linux-x86_64
22 metadata files removed
13 dbcache files removed
$

  then:

$ sudo dnf update
... chug chug chug ...
$

  and:

$ dnf info cockpit
langpacks: No languages are enabled
