can you reproduce it again, attach debugdata [1], post output of `dnf repoquery --installed kernel` and `uname -r`, please?

dnf repoquery --installed kernel
kernel-0:4.2.6-301.fc23.x86_64


uname -a

rpm -q libsolv hawkey dnf

hawkey-0.6.2-3.fc23.x86_64
dnf-1.1.4-2.fc23.noarch


This is freshly installed system, will see whether it will fail with kernel package (probably after installing kernel update may it happen). 

Whatever, represented packages are needed.

Comment 6 Michal Luscon 2015-12-23 13:19:59 UTC
Was the kernel installed by packagekit? This is potential duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1259865 .

You mean dnf ? Yes.

Comment 8 M_M 2015-12-23 14:23:16 UTC
The other side of problem:

 dnf list kernel
Last metadata expiration check performed 2 days, 19:31:02 ago on Sun Dec 20 21:49:49 2015.
Installed Packages
kernel.x86_64                      4.2.6-301.fc23                       @updates
kernel.x86_64                      4.2.7-300.fc23                       @updates
kernel.x86_64                      4.2.8-300.fc23                       @updates

and autoremove doesn't suggest to remove old ones.

Comment 9 Honza Silhan 2016-01-04 13:48:37 UTC
We'll take a deep look.

Comment 10 Chris 2016-01-30 00:44:31 UTC
I am seeing this bug in F23. The results from using this command are not what I would expect, and from the output I cannot tell if there are legitimate packages that could be 'autoremoved' because the attempt to remove the kernel is stopping the show. This installation was installed one day before I noticed this problem (i.e. fresh install yesterday), and everything has been updated (including a dnf update right before I noticed this issue)



$ sudo dnf autoremove

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
