I tried to simply uninstall and reinstall freeipa-dal and this happened.

It only had a replication agreement with freeipa-sea

You should remove it before proceeding:

So I tried to delete it again with --force

Can't delete it from the master server either

[root@seattlenfs ianh]# ipa host-del freeipa-dal.bpt.rocks
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'hostname': An IPA master host cannot be deleted or
disabled


Now what?  I'm running out of things that work.

Not sure what version of IPA you have but try:

# ipa-replica-manage --force --cleanup delete freeipa-dal.bpt.rocks

If this had a CA on it then you'll want to ensure that any replication
agreements it had have been removed as well.

It turns out I'm not smart enough to untangle this mess.

Is there any way to kind of start over?  I managed to delete and
recreate a couple replicas but the problems (obsolete ruv as far as I
can tell) carry on with the new replicas.  They won't even replicate
back to the master they were created from.

Once you have the right version of 389-ds then then cleanruv tasks work a lot better. What version are you running now?

Basically, is there a way to do a fresh install of FreeIPA server, and
do a dump/restore of data from my existing messed up install?

Not really, no. You can migrate IPA to IPA but only users and groups and you lose private groups for existing users (they become regular POSIX groups).
