The dnf-plugins-core package only contains manual pages, whereas
python-dnf-plugins-core contains the actual plugins for python2 and
python3-dnf-plugins-core contains the plugins for python3 (all built from
the same source rpm).

 dnf-plugins-core acts more as a -common package or a meta package that,
currently, pulls python-dnf-plugins-core (but python-dnf-plugins-core
doesn't require dnf-plugins-core); I guess in future when dnf switches to
using python3 by default it'll require python3-dnf-plugins-core.
