I've mentioned  http://fpaste.org  multiple times before.

From "rpm -qa --last" output, only the top few pages would be
interesting.

And "dnf list extras" output (or output from "package-cleanup
replacement", see bottom of "man yum2dnf") is only relevant
if your installation is fully updated. Only then it can
discover retired packages and packages missing in the repos.

Without paying attention to the output? ;-)

Keep trying. Remove retired packages. Run "dnf update" again.
Watch out for dependency problems due to your ancient installation.
Remove problematic packages. Run "dnf update" again. Rinse repeat.
Take a look at "man yum2dnf", too.
