The master commit 89609d9 addresses this, dnf should no longer complain about unfinished transactions.

Comment 3 Leslie Satenstein 2013-02-11 16:29:50 UTC
I had a similar problem.  DNF created a "Update on Reboot" transaction file for Manaage colors (or similar name). On reboot, and after several loops, the tranaction failed to process to 100%

Redoing the update with yum corrected the problem.  On a reboot, the Manage colors completed successfully.  Yum as a correction message reported an incomplete transaction.

DNF should ignore the 'update on reboot' flag now. Can you please open a separate bug and describe what packages were in the transaction if you're experiencing a different behavior?
