Why do you think your package database is corrupted? If it's because of
this autoremove issue, then you don't really have a problem.
The system has been only upgraded so far and was initially installed
with "yum".
I think the metadata store is different between yum and dnf, so if you
initially installed with yum, then dnf won't have all the right info.
If I run "autoremove", then I get the following (long) list
where surely
not everything can be removed.
Why are you trying to do this? There is no easy way to mark the
necessary packages. It's a very manual process and somewhat specific to
the person doing it. Unless you have a specific concern, it's not worth it.
