Summary : Utility for extracting and converting Microsoft icon and cursor files
Description :
The icoutils are a set of programs for extracting and converting images in
Microsoft Windows icon and cursor files. These files usually have the
extension .ico or .cur, but they can also be embedded in executables or
libraries.

That's a very large size, so it is obviously wrong.

No, and my F25 system updated just fine today. It seems crazy that
icoutils would cause a problem in python3 / dnf. Is there any chance
that your disks or memory are going flaky?
That's a possibility. I have a lot of problems with firefox,
thunderbird, and sometimes parts of the kernel occasionally aborting
because "something went wrong, restarting".
You could try downgrading to the previous version of the dnf
packages
to see if it is a dnf error. You would probably have to go to koji
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=14310
to get them at this point. To see what packages you need, do a
dnf remove dnf
and make sure to hit NO. Look at the dependencies that would be erased,
and get all those packages from koji.
I had a different solution. I went off site today (w/laptop) and things
worked well where I was. When I got back home, I un-suspended the
laptop but forgot to plug it in. After 2 hours, the battery discharged.
After plugging back in, when I tried to reboot
(kernel-4.9.13-101.fc24), it hung twice trying to start the gui. When I
rebooted with kernel-4.9.13-100.fc24, it came up, and the dnf update
succeeded! Gee, now I have 4.9.17 kernel to try! B^)
Or, just try a reinstall of dnf (and its dependent packages) to see
if
that fixes the problem.
