I've not had a moment to look at this yet. Recording here so that I can start checking what can be done. The provided command does not work, however. We've now seen this on multiple systems so it is not unique to this one. Beyond this, Fedora 26 is fully up to date and handled with DNF.

Looks like it was a reported bug but, it's been left...

They got it fixed in the repos between last night and tonight. This same command failed last night, now it is working. Once you are updated, do this..
dnf update --best --allowerasing

Will that uninstall yum-utils? Isn't that still needed for a lot of things?

dnf-utils replaces it.
