Issue with dnf update after fedup from fc21 to fc22?

[Michael D. Setzer II]

Everything seemed to go thru fine with the update, but then running dnf 
update ran into a strange issue.

It was trying to remove an old fc21 kernel, and it failed with 3 files. Using 
yumex I was alble to remove two of the files with no problem, but the 
kernel-core gets a similar message. Tried both of the options it mentions at 
the end, but still get the message.

Not sure why it is giving a message about kernel 4.0.8, when it is remove 
4.0.5?

To diagnose the problem, try running: 'rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest'.
You probably have corrupted RPMDB, running 'rpm --rebuilddb' might fix the 
issue.

Did you?  If so, what happened?  If not, why not?

What message?  What did you remove, exactly?

Looks like something broken with your VirtualBox install, maybe? Try:

dnf install VirtualBox kmod-VirtualBox kernel

...which should pull in the latest version of the kernel, the module for 
VirtualBox, and the VirtualBox application.

If you still have problems, reply with the output of:

rpm -qa *VirtualBox* kernel*
