All started with update to F28. From that point I'm not receiving any updates even if there are some:

Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

Igor suggested me to install dnf-2.7.5-7.fc28 that solves the issue for me.
Comment 1 Igor Gnatenko 2018-03-19 07:56:48 UTC 
That's a bug in modular DNF which does "job update oneof ..." instead of "job update all packages".
