What would be a good course of action?
After install a new Fedora 24, now 25, I do this step.
sudo systemctl mask dnf-makecache dnf-makecache.timer packagekit
packagekit-offline-update
sudo systemctl stop dnf-makecache dnf-makecache.timer packagekit
packagekit-offline-update
rm -rf /var/cache/PackageKit/*
And all still work.
Another way to avoid that PackageKit download tons of package, which it
will never use and never remove, is:
sudo dnf remove PackageKit
rm -rf /var/cache/PackageKit/*
This remove also gnome-software, then, if you want a graphical software
installer you can:
sudo dnf install yumex-dnf
This is bad advice. Breaking gnome-software just to avoid updates from
being downloaded is the wrong hammer. Instead use,
[chris@f25h ~]$ gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false
