Well, I got news.
I just did an update through Gnome software. It removed both my 5.5 and
5.3 kernels. Now I have only 3 kernels :
Installed Packages
kernel.x86_64 5.6.8-200.fc31 @updates
kernel.x86_64 5.6.10-300.fc32 @updates
kernel.x86_64 5.6.11-300.fc32 @updates
Well, this was a wild goose chase. I will closing the bug.
Why? As Ed verified, packagekit does not respect the install_only
setting when doing a system upgrade. I consider that to be a bug. He
also verified that installing another kernel after that would bring the
number back to where it should be.
