I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1627694 yesterday.
The gist is that dnf stopped having locking around the rpm operation,
so it'll fail if two operations are invoked concurrently. Before it'd
very nicely do the downloads in parallel and then run the actual installations
sequentially. I think this is a huge regression in usability.

I also saw some "TransactionItem not found" messages, but this has already
been reported extensively.
