Hello and thank you for the report, I just found out in my own testing last week that in some cases DNF fails to handle obsoleting packages correctly, resulting in the 'transaction check vs depsolve' error. I fixed this on a development branch: https://github.com/akozumpl/dnf/commit/ad2525664d6c08697c6e168f6069c6a7aff36378 This fix should make dnf-0.3.5, and I'll make sure to update this bug then.
The fix is on the master branch now, commit ad25256, will be included in dnf-0.3.5.
