dnf errors or kernel* rpm problems?

[Kevin Martin]

dnf upgrade doesn't show an error while updating the kernel packages but there are missing entries in grub2.conf after an upgrade
that should be for the new kernel that was downloaded and, supposedly, installed.  If I attempt a dnf reinstall of the kernel and
related rpms then I get the following errors:

In the first case if I remove all of the kernel-tools-libs rpms using "rpm -e --nodeps" and in the second case the same for the
previous kernel-headers rpm I can then do the reinstall, grub2.conf gets updated, and I can boot into the new kernel.  I'm not sure
what the problem is here, dnf or the kernel* rpms.

Is nobody else seeing this?
