dnf installs gcc 7.3.1 but gcc.gnu.org provides only 7.3.0

[Frédéric]

How is it possible that dnf installs gcc 7.3.1 when only 7.3.0 exists
on gcc.gnu.org?

Read https://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/develop.html
"Version Numbering Scheme for GCC 5 and Up" part?
7.3.1 is a version used for 7 branch snapshots in between 7.3 and 7.4
releases, which is what we are shipping in Fedora.  The version also
includes the date when the snapshot has been made.

You mean that all snapshots are called 7.3.1, only the date differs?

Yes.  X.Y.0 is only reserved for the single revision that is tagged as release.
