With my update to F22 the issues were plymouth packages where the ISO image I used was ahead of the repos (but the packages were in updates-testing) and an xorg package that had gone in F22 and needed to be removed.

You are likely facing the consequences of the dnf's changes having been discussed in https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2015-April/209697.html ff. I had been facing this issue myself and consider this dnf behavior change to be such kind of harmful and silly, I feel to decision to use dnf on fc22 should be reverted.

dnf check-update lists available updates from the enabled repositories, and
if the same update is available from multiple repos it will be shown twice
check-update is not the same as the resulting transaction of a dnf update.
I does exactly what the man page says it does
http://akozumpl.github.io/dnf/command_ref.html#check-update-command
and please if your think something is a bug, then make a bugzilla repost,
fdl is not a bugtracker.

yum treats 'environments' as groups that can be selected. It appears DNF
does not.

If that's true - it might be a tad inconvenient?
